She will eat Quorn - what am I going to do with her?

Sorry, I don't have any children this is the best I can offer in advice. Good luck.
Thanks for the suggestions though.

Good to hear there is are some things for us to try... so hard to find things like this out from over here.

No my friend, they come from research scientists.

There is a Govinda's restaurant opposite Myer Centre (99 Elizabeth Street) - part of the Hare Krishna chain. I hear food is good and incredibly cheap.
Hope this helps

Not a vegetarian myself, but I always liked this quote-
“You put a baby in a crib with an apple and a rabbit. If it eats the rabbit and plays with the apple, I'll buy you a new car.” -Harvey Diamond
