Vegetarian 100

Earlier this week I found and posted the Omnivore's 100. I mentioned in the comments that a vegetarian list was needed as well. Maybelle's Mom stepped up to the plate with her meticulously annotated Vegetarian 100. Stop by feeding maybelle to see her list and leave a comment there if post a copy of the list. How cow was there a lot I haven't tried! I need to go shopping to look for some of this stuff.

General rules:
bold
= have eaten
unhighlighted = haven't eaten
crossed out = won't ever eat
Click on the (?) if you need an example. Maybelle's Mom did a lot of work getting all of those links. I'm in awe.
