How do they make a vegan quiche ?
There are lots of potential omega 6 sources in a vegan diet .

You can buy fake egg.

You can also make your own with soft tofu for the whites, a fat mixed with an emulsifier for the yolk, and a sulfuric compound like onion powder or black salt for the taste. It would be harder to replicate the look and mouth feel of a sunny side up egg but not impossible using a fiberous gum like guar gum or xanthan gum, vegan mayonnaise, and yellow food coloring for the yolk, and then blended tofu with a little vegan mayonnaise for the white.

Thought I would give an update -

Well I'm getting much better at my vegan food choices.

I've lost 6 1/2 pounds but more importantly have started going to the loo for a number 2 every day! This has never happened in my life. Normally it was every three to five days.

Congratulations. I’m just not myself without that morning sit down ritual. Of course now I bring my knees up a bit, thank, Uujay. My sister once said, that first morning deposit , “Puts a spring in your step the rest of the day.” Id agree.

I know a lot of people that are like that and I can't help but ask: HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? How do you guys go like 2-3 times per week? My bare minimum is 3 times per DAY...

Seriously gone nearly a week many times without a poo. Docs have given me all sorts of stuff. It started when I was a child.

I've gone before after a while without and I've actually felt cold as I've lost so much internal waste. It's awful.

Wow, you would think that with the uptake in fiber from a plant based diet you would be regular at the least.

I am now, wasn't before. It's a good positive.

...Oh, and I'm "regular" as hell wrt my bathroom habits, too! I do my 3 "S's" EVERY morning & I'm GOOD TO GO for the entire day!

yep, with my loss of appetite and weight loss I don’t eat very much. Only half a burrito yesterday, could finish it. I’m sure UB’s lady’s can relate. I literally have to try to remember when the last time was.

Fortunately I'm trained in CPR in case they choke. The initial reaction is big eyes, a deep breath followed by "whoa you ARE a BIG boy!" Of course I'm just talking about my vegan bean burritos I make for dinner.... desert is classified

Well, I’m more a churro than a burrito, but she did manage to add some sour cream on it today, LOL.

Hi Tara if you have been cutting out flour, your answer could be there, it may be your coeliac, so cutting out flour makes you gluten free, my not spoken about sister has it and this should have been picked up by your doctor many years ago.

So changing your life style is doing you some good Tara, well done,

Now you can come and change mine.

And even if you don't have coeliac disease, gluten is still known to slow down digestion. Fats also slow down digestion and since you have gone vegan your fats intake is probably reduced.
