Would you like to come over for dinner tonight?
Sure, but I have to tell you that I've become a vegetarian. I don't eat any kind of meat.
When did you decide to become a vegetarian?
I saw a program a few months ago about how animals are raised for human consumption. I haven't been able to eat a single piece of meat since.
That's great. Do you find that you eat a lot more fruit and vegetables now?
Definitely. I've also been buying organic fruit and vegetables, which is more expensive, but much better for you because they don't have any pesticides on them.
You've really turned into a health nut, haven't you?
I guess you could say that. Eating fruit and vegetables helps keep you healthy. I've lost 5 pounds and I feel great!
How do you get enough protein in your diet?
Well, I eat a lot more tofu, beans, nuts and some fish.
Well, don't worry about dinner. I'll only make vegetarian dishes for you. Do you like sushi?
I prefer cooked fish to raw fish, but if you really like it, make it.
How about a spicy tofu and vegetable stir-fry?
That sounds great. What time should I come over?
Dinner will be ready at about 7:30 pm, so you can come over at 7 p. m.
Sounds good. See you there!
