Just noticed your new post ... I thought I would let you know that in my understanding the veggie burgers at Ruby Tuesdays are not vegan anymore. See this thread on vegweb: http://vegweb.com/index.php?topic=26912.0

One poster cites this email from Ruby Tuesday:

Thank you for taking the time to contact Ruby Tuesday!

At this time we have the vegan option of our Fresh Garden Bar (used at
the guests discretion). The veggie burger is NOT a vegan option because
it contains mayonnaise (which contains eggs) in the veggie burger mix;
therefore it cannot be omitted.

If you need further assistance please feel free to contact us at any
time.

Anyway, just thought you'd like to know!! : )

Sadly, I went to Cafe Dharma a couple of weeks ago, and they no longer offer food, only smoothies. I was told the former chef has moved onto other things. Maria
