He wrote in the post: ‘It is not a matter of tomorrow, but a problem of being vegetarian and not having a basic option for it. I have had to hear many times, ‘Oh, you are vegetarian, that is, chicken and fish are fine.’ If you eat meat, why do we close our vegetarian options? What if vegetarian food is made baseline everywhere and meat is alternately added? The problem will be solved. I came out so disappointed with office lunch that Caters felt bad and offered to ask for something for me after an hour. But by then I had ordered lunch for myself due to hunger.

According to the report of India Today, the woman’s name is Runjhun Mishra, known as ‘The Vicied Vegetarian’. Runjhun narrated his tragedy in the video. He raised the question, ‘If you have ever been hungry in an event, then raise your hand.’ Recalling the moment, Runjhun said that vegetarians are often ignored in food related events, especially in places where food arrangements are promised for all. He told that in his office it was said that the arrangement of lunch will be from the office and the employees do not need to bring food.
There was no option for vegetarian food in office lunch
In the video, Runjhun told that when it was lunch time, food came for everyone. She was very excited. But when she reached there, she saw more than 60 sandwiches, which had options such as Halal, Kosher, and Gluten-free. But when he asked for a vegetarian sandwich, there was silence. Catterors did not have any option for vegetarians.
People advised me to remove meat from sandwich and eat it
Breaking the silence, someone advised me that I could make a vegetarian sandwich themselves and they meant what they have always said to people like me- you can take a meat sandwich and make it a vegetarian by carefully removing all the layers of meat in that sandwich. Runjhun said that this is the reason why I do not have the desire to eat vegetarian sandwich. This makes me vomit.
