      Interesting question :-) So I guess they don't breast feed their infants then.

        For me it's a Chicken Sandwich. They never used to bother me until one day I went to get something to eat one lunchtime. I went into the local sandwich bar and: Me: "I'll have a Chicken Sandwich, please." SalesWoman: "We have no Chicken Sandwiches. I'm Afraid!" And do you know, since that day I've been afraid of them too.

          Well egg I get. The other three are vegetables, so anyone not eating them is basing it on some other belief (usually religious).

          Usually Jains do not eat potato, brinjals and onions as they believe while cultivating them, farmers may accidentally kill snakes, rat, earthworm et al, and killing of any living being is against jainism they usually ban these products. Although, even few Chitpavan brahmins do not eat onion in few months (Shravan)

            What about rice then? Pesticides are used in rice fields.

                                When I travel, one of my hobbies is to try chicken salad sandwiches at various places looking for a good one.

                                      Usually Jains do not eat potato, brinjals and onions as they believe while cultivating them, farmers may accidentally kill snakes, rat, earthworm et al, and killing of any living being is against jainism they usually ban these products. Although, even few Chitpavan brahmins do not eat onion in few months (Shravan)

                                      Potatoes and onions, yes, but brinjals don't grow underground, so why avoid them? :confused:

                                        I was kinda expecting you to say your ex. But then that wouldn't be funny cause it'd be true. :rolleyes:
