Yeah, I'm a big fan of Ethopian, Indian, and falafel, which is why my answer is only $27,000.

Do they have any good Ethiopian restuarants in Chicago? That is another cuisine I'd like you to introduce me to!

Yeah, two or three pretty good ones.

All,

I would do this for 100k and feel like I was getting the better end of the deal.

Yeti: I obviously then thought about, would I do it for a second week? Yeah. And then I thought about being offered that 52 times in a row and figured I'd probably be fine with it. Only a dumb-ass would think I just extrapolated the one week into fifty weeks without considering the differnece between fifty weeks and one. As I explained, I don't think this is really that big a deal and there are relatively few meals that I would REALLY, REALLY regret not being able to partake in.

Daver: You can eat TONS AND TONS of Indian food. Remove a few chicken dinners and I've eaten largely vegan for three month periods in the past without much trouble.

Ghee.

[/ QUOTE ]

a lot of indian cookbooks I have read de-emphasize the use of ghee. I wouldn't be shocked to find some indian joints that don't really use it in many dishes. I use it sometimes but can definitely make many things without it.

Vegan: 50k.

Vegetarian: Probably ~10k if there were some pride involved (as in a bet). I was a vegetarian for 6 years though, so it's pretty easy for me to do it again.

Ghee = clarified butter
clarfied butter = not vegan

OP body habitus = kleinstadt's body habitus

I'd have to spend a LOT of time/energy eating to keep up my weight without dairy products or meat.

$100K-$200K for me, easy.

Surprised OP doesn't ask for a lot more.

I would be willing to do it for $1mil + cost of the groceries and a world class vegan chef doing all of the cooking. Everything I love foodwise is off-limits to vegans. No steak, no burgers, no shrimp, no ice cream, no cheese... Life is too short for me to want to give up a full year without massive compensation.

$50K ish.

Less than that if I hate the person and want to take their money.
