It's important to remember that data analysis like this one always done on a per capita basis. The Durham/Chapel Hill metro is 540k people. The Austin metro is about 4.3 million people. If this area had more vegetarian restaurants than Austin, something would be seriously weird lol.
What rubbish. I am a vegetarian and this area is among the least vegetarian friendly areas I have been in. I lived in New Haven, CT before and the vegetarian/vegan culture was a lot more prevalent. The city that I found with the greatest vegetarian/vegan friendliness is Berkeley, CA. Don't get me wrong. I love the food offerings here. I really enjoy eating at the Indian restaurants (Cholanad is the best South Indian restaurant I have been to in the US), Med Deli and Remedy Diner. I also definitely endorse the warm service here. But, vegetarian friendly? Nah.

That includes BBQ (smoked).
Good comment. But I think most of us eat it in moderation. As an older poster, 50, I would to say that vegetable gardens of my youth have almost completely disappeared. They used to be everywhere. Not to mention the farm land around our towns that are reverting back to trees.

Within the last 10 years I've seen a big increase in gardening. Maybe it depends on the area but my last neighborhood had quite a few of them. Chickens are big in Raleigh too. The whole foodie and home grown movement has played a big part in reintroducing gardens back into people's yards.

Absolutely. Far more backyard gardens than 20 or 30 years ago. Community gardens are big now too.

Not hard at all to get veggies from local farmer, organic also. If you are vegan like me, you obviously know where they all are.
