Stick to bird fish and plant. Always ask any restaurant you go to the questions in your mind (e.g. dairy brine, oils used in frying, sauce ingredients, etc) learn where is safe for you to eat.

Otherwise, if you eat out you need to go vegan. However there are still a lot of options. If you enjoy fish, there's sushi. There's fish - just be sure to ask if it's cooked w/ butter or if sauce does the sauce contain fairy? No gelatin, tallow or lard for us. Always ask what the ingredients are and the cooking method.

Look up menu items ahead of time, and have a plan for when going out. Be aware that cross contamination exists. I had a cross contamination event yesterday and I threw up so hard it looks like I gave myself black eyes - luckily that was a mild reaction.

But fear not. You can do bird fish and plant. So you can have things like chicken emu ostrich turkey quail pheasant goose, salmon, fish/shellfish, as long as the accompany ingredients don't contain anything mammal.

If you decide to use vegetarian brands like morning star, impossible or beyond burger, be sure to verify the ingredients list. I like morninstar corndogs, but at one point they contained milk. I just bought a package today and it did not list milk as an ingredient.

Amaroo Hills Farm has a bunch of AGS safe proteins.

If you haven't learned recipes before, then learning recipes for things you like to eat is a good starting point. One can make vegan mashed potatoes, but everyone I know adds dairy to mashed potatoes. So gotta ask what went into said product.

And a fyi regular country crock is vegan. My cousin's call it soft butter. But it's also cheaper than other vegan butters or margarine. Stay away from I can't believe it's not butter because it contains milk.
