I want to ask a question about food and Hinduism
a few years ago i posted about being vegetarian but because of my financial situation i couldnt not afford food without having egg in it
What i didnt know then was that onions , leeks and garlic arent allowed as well
i have been going back and forward over my faith never deciding what am doing now i have decided
My husband is an atheist and not a vegetarian he says that we should be allowed to eat what ever we want to eat but because of our budget we cant afford food thats without onions and leeks ( and sometimes Garlic )
everything in our freezer has onions apart from chips or mixed veg
my husband dont understand why there is rules for this av tired to tell him that Krishna cant eat or have it offered to him ( because of sex drive benefits in onions and Garlic )
he says that religions shouldn't have stupid rules about food ( my husband has no understanding of faith at all )
i have looked for other food to have but am not finding anything that is so cheep and in our area
my husband also said that id need to start cooking everything from scratch and we dont have time to do that
So am unsure what to do really i have in the past been wanting to go vegan but he says we cant afford that either and id have to cook it all from scratch
I know that i cant make an offering to Krishna with the food that am eating
dont want to eat without making an offering to Krishna
Am in Scotland if that is any help
