Traci already stated that this is incorrect, but I'll go one further. If your mom was willing to take her amino acids in capsule form, she could certainly have remained vegan. As so amusingly referenced above, Tom can only get his amino acids that way.

By the way, Trac, it's OK to be flexible. I eat a little ham around the holidays sometimes. Just because you choose to eat one way most of the time, it doesn't mean you aren't allowed to make other choices.

Oh wow, Traci, I didn't realize the significance of you having a burger! Good choice though!

Well, I've never been to an in N out, though there are a few of them in the Bay Area. I seem to recall a long thread about them on mice chat. I guess I should seek one out next time I'm in the mood for a burger. But, we've got a local drive in spot here that has a good reputation (little dive in Belmont) so I may try that first.

I'm putting this in bold because... You know you can order your fries extra crispy, right?

The beauty, IMO, of In N' Out is that they'll make you whatever you want, however you want it, if they have the ingredients. Want cheese fries? Comin' right up! Want 100 patties - well, you know, they've done that, too. (Legend has it they've done more patties than that... But you get the idea.)

If your fries didn't come the way you like them, unless you have something against fresh-cut potatoes - which I know some people do - just ask for a crispier version of the fries.

Unless you're trying to keep away from fast foods. Now-a-days, though I like their fries, if I am simply craving a burger and I am near an In N Out, I don't order the fries - may as well save the calories. The act of me getting fast food in burger-form is fairly rare as well. Fries, under any circumstance are just unnecessary. Unless they're amazing. Put a plate of garlic fries in front of me, and that's amazing.

OH - that's right, this is about vegan Tracilicious and burgertime fun.

Well, good choice if you were going to eat a burger. Better than a McD's or just about anywhere else.

I thought traci outed herself as a meat-eater last week?

Yeah, the problem is with fresh cut fries, which, in my opinion make for horrible french fries. If you're going to use fresh potatoes better to bake them into potato wedges or something than frying them.

Potatoes should go through a soak several times to remove excess starches before being fried. In my opinion, of course. So frying htem longer for again won't solve the problem.
