Special shopping?  I save time by bypassing the meat counter in its entirety.
That area is usually crowded with people trying to find a "good" cut.  I can't
think of anything that is more complex about vegetarian shopping than about
careful shopping in general.  On the other hand, "shopping's a breeze when
you're shopping for sleeze", whether you're a veg or not :-).

Special preparation?  Seems to me that cooking a big roast for hours on end
is more time consuming than steaming vegetables.

So, where do *you* folks find the time to do all the special shopping and
preparation that being a carnivore (OK, OK, omnivore) requires?
