The real worry about the lack of meat in one's diet is making
sure that one gets the proper complement of proteins.  I do this
by trying to eat at least one meal a day where I combine some
form of grains with some form of legumes.

One that Maurice didn't mention is that many cheeses have 
rennet, which comes from veal stomachs or intestines.

I'm new to this newsgroup as well, though I've been a veg
for about six years now.
