There is still more to learn about being Vegetarian,
By H. J. Young - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Living Vegetarian For Dummies (Paperback)
I like what this book has to say. There is more for me to learn. I have not watched carefully as to what ingredients are in prepared food. I need to learn the animal ingredients and their byproducts that are added in small quantities.
