Aye and it's a common reaction for veggies to classify themselves as
something other than an omnivore.
An omnivore is a species definition, it defines the general diet that the
whole species is able to eat and digest, etc.
You do not stop being an omnivore just because you stop eating meat unless
you have you suddenly transmogrified into a giant panda.
My 15 year old son is a veggie, having chosen to give up meat during Glasto
2007, at which coincidently he met Wiggy (not sure who/what is to blame for
the conversion) and I have had the discussion with him about supplements,
Quorn has as much protein in as meat. It has to be said that his quorn
fillets don't taste the same as my swordfish steaks.
On the plus side for veggies (or negative if you are a bloke), it has been
proved that meat eaters produce the smelliest farts but in less quantities
than veggies.

None of the veggies I know take supplements Tim.
It is a common reaction for omnivores, on being introduced to a veggies,
to warn us of the importance of a balanced diet.... as if it matters not
for meat eaters!
My wife is an omnivore but both of us pay careful attention to what we
eat. I think this is important for everyone. Have you read Eric
Schlosser's Fast food Nation?
