This being my first year being a vegetarian I was wondering what you all ate. For me I think its going to be collard greens, rice, sweet potato and some otherstuff.

I still don't understand why anyone's a vegetarian... That said, I could get full off the Thanksgiving sides alone.

It's easy for me because I don't really celebrate Thanksgiving. So, nothing special.

I met a Vegan over the Summer, he was in my Chinese course. I asked him if it was hard being a vegetarian and how long he has done it. He told me about 8 yearsand that meat still looks delicious to him, but the thought of actually chewing it and swallowing it turns him off from consuming meats. There is a differencebetween vegetarians and vegans, make sure you know the difference! Vegans avoid ALL products that have even the slightest ties to meat, such as dairy productsthat come from cows. Vegetarians on the other hand can still drink milk, eat ice cream, etc. He was a vegetarian, so he still ate all kinds of things, just notpure meat. He also said that it is common for vegetarians to eat fish only. You could try eating a lot of vegetables. Don't limit yourself to Thanksgivingstyle food. Go eat some Fettucini Alfredo, a Margherita pizza, etc. It is always a good time to eat good food.

Well, you should be able to eat all the sides and all the pie you want, unless you're a real stickler for ingredients (gelatin, bone marrow, etc.)
But you can always make your own dish to share! I always trick my family into eating my dish and they end up loving it. Them ignorant foolswouldn't eat it if I told them it was quinoa and tempeh. I tell them, "Oh, it's just some grainy dish with seasoned chicken breast." They know about my diet but they don't really know what a vegetarian/vegan eats. They still offer me crap like turkey dogs like I'm supposedto get excited.

Same here. I'll probably just have to eat the side dishes. If that doesn't work, I'll just make some vegan fettucine alfredo or cheeseless pizza.

I came across this link by way of a vegetarian friend and thought some of you would appreciate it: http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/11/24/vegetarian.thanksgiving/index.html
And here's another pair of links which you might find useful as well:

Bookmarked. Thanks for the links, and actually to everyone shunning the Tofurkey Roast I've heard pretty good things about it.
