Attention vegetarians or not. Is Mushroom Foo Young vegetarian?

Question

I'm a vegetarian and I'm going to a Chinese restaurant with some friends and was wondering if Mushroom Foo Young was vegetarian.

Answer 1

Foo Young is made with eggs.  So if you eat eggs then it is okay.  If you are total vegan then no you don't want to eat it.

Answer 2

yes mushrooms are veggie  there just really gross and smell nasty

Answer 3

Egg Foo Young is basically the Chinese version of a omelet.  It is a very simple dish with eggs, beans sprouts, mushrooms and salt and fried in oil.  If you eat eggs, I guess your main concern would be what type of oil it is fried in.

Answer 4

It could be fried in animal fat: pork, or chicken. I'd ask the cook before ordering it. Some Chinese restaurants have a vegetarian section to their menu, but you still should ask if the food was prepaired with any meat broth or fried in animal fat.
