Chef Chris Kimball and NPR's Renee Montagne taste a Thanksgiving pumpkin pie.
It's like the start of a bad joke: a vegan, a gluten-free and a paleo walk into a bar except it's your house, and they're gathered around your Thanksgiving table.
More and more Americans are passing on gluten some for medical reasons, most by choice. Others are adopting diets that exclude meat, or insisting on the kinds of unprocessed foods that early man would have hunted and gathered.
All of this is a challenge to the traditional Thanksgiving feast.
In The Salt's informal survey of 4,700 readers, nearly a quarter of you agreed that you have some difficulties in coming up with ways to meet everyone's dietary lifestyle choices at the holiday table.
Whether you're a host or a guest attending a potluck-style dinner, if you're still scrambling to find the perfect, uncontroversial dish, NPR Morning Edition's Renee Montagne turned for help to Chris Kimball, the host of America's Test Kitchen.
Here are some of his recommended dishes to satisfy alternative diets, and notes on what to try this Thanksgiving holiday.

Vegan charity against UK poultry targets Nandos
Posted: at 10:50 pm
Tuesday 25 November 2014 7:00
Vegetarian and vegan charity Viva! has launched a campaign aimed at turning consumers away from chicken and towards a meat-free diet.
Images of poorly-feathered broilers and crowded sheds, taken uninvited onpoultry farms, form the cornerstone of its campaigning.
The charity helped with covertfilming taken by the Guardian newspaper earlier this year.
It has previously campaigned against free-range egg production, arguing it is akin to factory farming.
Viva! says it will accompany imagery with large-scale leaflet drops, and plans to distribute 100,000 in the coming weeks. It has also held peaceful demonstrations outside Nandos restaurants, encouraging diners to choose from the vegan menu rather than selecting poultry.
On 22 November, 150 Nandos were targeted in some form.
Literature distributed by the charity plays on the fact 945 million chickens are slaughtered a year accounting for 94% of all animals by headage. Leaflets run the headline: By the time you finish reading this, 3,500 chickens will have died.
Campaign manager for Viva! Justin Kerswell told Poultry World the campaigning by the charity would be ongoing, and ran under the banner Life is Cheep?
The bottom line is chickens are the most killed animal. They are plucky, delightful little animals with similar cognitive abilities to higher primates, yet are treated as commodities, devoid of hope, fear or pain.

Gadarene Swine restaurant in Studio City strays from the vegan norm

The tale of the Gadarene Swine is one of the best to be found in the Gospels, reported in the books of several of the Apostles, who describe Jesus and his followers coming upon two men of fierce visage who block their way. Jesus asks one of the men: What is thy name? And the man replies, My name is Legion: for we are many.
It's a wonderful line that is echoed by Randall Flagg in Stephen King's The Stand, who refers to himself as Legion. The word refers to the many demons in the Gadarene men. Jesus miraculously transfers the demons into a herd of swine, who then rush to the sea en masse and drown themselves.

Now what does all that have to do with a vegan restaurant of the same name in Studio City? Well, as the notably brief menu tells us, the biblical tale inspired a philosophical conceit called the Gadarene Swine Fallacy. The explanation is reprinted from philosophicalsociety.com, saying the fallacy is the belief that Because a group is in the right formation, it is necessarily on the right course; and conversely, of supposing that because an individual has strayed from the group and isn't in formation, that he is off course ...
Is the point then that carnivores follow the, ahem, herd, while vegans go their own way? Perhaps. Though that would be a bit of an odd notion for a chef (Phillip Frankland Lee) whose other restaurant (the Scratch Bar) is well known for its omnivorous leanings.
Or perhaps he just liked the name and thought a little philosophical musing went well with the roasted garlic and fresh thyme popcorn. Hard to say. But what can be said is that the Gadarene Swine is one of the quirkiest restaurants to open on a street of many quirks.

The funny thing about the current state of vegan cooking is that it's more appealing to omnivores (or flexitarians) than ever. Vegan food isn't just for vegans anymore.

Carrie Underwood Plans to Be a Vegetarian While Pregnant, Then Switch Diets
Posted: at 10:50 pm
A pregnant Carrie Underwoodwill once again avoid turkey this Thanksgiving.
The 31-year-old country star, who grew up on a farm and has maintained vegetarian and vegan diets since she was a teenager, toldYahoo! Beautyin an interview posted on Tuesday that she will continue to remain meat-free during her pregnancy. The Grammy winner andAmerican Idolalumand husband Mike Fisher, a 34-year-old NHL player, are expecting their first child, a baby boy.
"I have been vegetarian for about 10 years now," she said. "With pregnancy, I am definitely going more on the vegetarian side, but as soon as I am not pregnant anymore I will go back to being vegan."
Maintaining a vegetarian diet while pregnant is healthy for both mothers and their children as long as the women get the appropriate vitamins and nutrients. Doctors may prescribe supplements.

Pregnant women also require more protein in the second and third trimesters, according to thePhysicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. Therefore, lacto-vegetarians, who consume dairy, and lacto-ovo vegetarians, who also eat eggs, may find it easier to maintain a healthy pregnancy diet than vegans.
Expectant mothers who refrain from eating meat, fish and eggs are encouraged to consume other foods rich in iron, such as leafy vegetables and grains to minimize the risk of anemia, which can lead to birth defects. Vegan and vegetarian pregnant women are also at a higher risk of becoming deficient in vitamin B-12, which is found in animal-based proteins and milk but also in certain soy products.
In 2011, Natalie Portman switched from a vegan diet to a vegetarian one while she was pregnant with son Aleph...and had cravings for cookies and cake from "regular bakeries."
This past September, Underwood was spotted giving into a non-vegan craving of her ownshe was seen picked up a pint ofBen & Jerry's vanilla ice cream, which is made with cream, skim milk and egg yolks.
"I don't think I am craving anything too crazy," the singer told Yahoo! Beauty. "I try to keep it as healthy as possible and try to take care of myself. And, you know, putting good things in!"

Why eat fake meat?
Posted: at 10:50 pm
STORY HIGHLIGHTS
(CNN) -- Options for meat substitutes have come a long way since Seth Tibbott's first few Thanksgivings as vegetarian in the 1970s.
Vegetable side dishes and salads were nice but they didn't seem as festive as a turkey, the traditional Thanksgiving centerpiece. The Oregon man tried all kinds of experiments, from a stuffed pumpkin to a gluten roast that took all day to make but was "unsliceable and indigestible."
After becoming a professional "soycrafter" in 1980, Tibbott noticed that sales seemed to slow around Thanksgiving and Christmas "as people lost their vegetarian ways and guiltily ate traditional fare like turkey," he said. Aside from tofu, which was primarily only sold in Asian markets, the only commercially available meat alternatives were made by Seventh Day Adventist companies, and many of these products were canned.
"I subsisted on a diet of homemade items like pressure-cooked soybeans and tortillas, soy grit burgers, bread and granola," he told CNN.
Over the years, fake meat -- or what some call plant-based meat -- grew to include burgers, hot dogs and ground beef. But poultry was still a relatively untapped niche, especially when it came to holiday centerpieces. With the help of Portland sandwich maker Hans Wrobel, Tibbott came up with the first Tofurky Roasts in 1995 and sold them in the Pacific Northwest.
