Is it possible to remain vegetarian in standard culinary school? If not, how difficult is it to find work when you've only trained in vegetarian cooking?

My guess would that in order to be successful, you would have to taste your creations in school. How else could you truly understand the nuances of good food versus great food? That doesn't mean you have to consume an entire meal, but tasting while they're cooking is something that many chefs do to ensure that all the flavors are just right.

The restaurant industry is very demanding and unforgiving. If you were only trained in vegetarian cooking, you may have a difficult time finding a job in a conventional restaurant unless they're big enough to have vegetarian specialist. Most restaurants want cooks that are flexible and can cook everything well.

Good luck to you.
