Welcome to Veggie Views! And congrats on making the switch to vegetarianism! And from somebody in Iran! Is vegetarianism uncommon in Iran?

I'm afraid so . although i have no clue about the other countries to make a good comparison but i think it must be more common in a country than it is now in Iran
. for example when my friends find out that i have became vegetarian they panic and immidiately say : "what do you gain protein from?" and these other kind of questions . fortunately my parents were absolutely tolerant of my choice .
the other difficulty is that you can barely find vegetarian and organic restaurants and supermarkets . in university i have to bring launch for myself most of the days .
but looking at the bright side , it's slowly getting more common fortunately
BTW thanks for your attention Amy . where are you from ? what about your country ?

Santa Monica, Los Angeles, California, USA. We have a lot of Iranians in the Los Angeles area. In fact, my nephew is married to a girl from an Iranian family.

Welcome! Your concern about friends and family members being annoying when it comes to vegetarianism definitely isn't something unique to Iran. People are crazy about this everywhere, unfortunately.
