Since I’m stuck going to Vegas next week for 5 days, the underlying problem remains:  what exactly can I really eat?  Subway veggie subs with no cheese for breakfast, lunch and dinner?   Needless to say I’ve been mapping out every Whole Foods in the city since I’ll have a car.

I stumbled on an interesting fact from an article in ReviewJournal about Vegans regarding World Championship Poker Player Daniel Negreanu:

“I wish every restaurant and snack bar at least kept in mind those of us who don’t eat dead pigs,” says World Series of Poker champ and vegan Las Vegan Daniel Negreanu. “Just keep in mind and have something on the menu that we can eat. A veggie burger should be almost mandatory on every menu.”

Negreanu — a Toronto native and two-year vegan — says maintaining the lifestyle can be difficult in the town he has called home since 1997, “especially in Strip casinos or in the airport.”

There are options, like the fast food restaurant chain Evos, but I’ve got one more magic bullet in my dietary restrictions and thats sodium restriction.  Taking a look at Evos sodium content is like looking at the bottom of a bottle of soy sauce (1100mg on most items.)

At any rate, its good to know I’m not alone.
