A question to the vegetarians?

Question

Im vegetarian, am i right to be bothered about meat being cooked in the same pots and pans?

im 19 and i live with my boyfriend, 21, whose a heavy meat eater, i want to buy my own set of pots and pans and everything because im bothered by all his steak and stuff being cooked in the same pots and pans i use.

i dont think he really minds either way but do you think this is really petty or is it valid reasoning? i mean, i know it gets washed and everything, but i still find it so gross! also because when my bf does the dishes, he does them so dodgy lol! even worse when he thinks im not watching haha

Answer 1

I think it's ok if it's washed, obviously don't use the same grill to make his steak and your non-meat at the same time as there could always be some contamination. But you could buy a few pans but there's always a chance they will get mixed up.

Answer 2

You should do what ever it is that you feel comfortable with. Some people use separate cookware, while others simply wash thoroughly.

  

Answer 3

As long as the pots and pans are washed good your just fine.  

Answer 4

Valid.

Your morals, if he can't respect 'em, dump his sorry ***.

Answer 5

dont spam dear...

Answer 6

I believe that you should do what you think is right. If you find it horrible, I would suggest you get your own pans and pots, as it is best to do what you think is good. if i were in your place, I would never use the same pans and pots used to cook meat, as in my opinion they are basically tools used to help murder. For example, I wouldn't dig sand with a spade that has been used to cut peoples guts out!

Answer 7

If he doesn't wash the pots properly I would say don't use them. It might be best if you encouraged him to do the wash effectively.
