don't worry about it! Unless you are vegan you have no need to take B12 or worry about eating B12 fortified foods. All other nutrients are found easily throughout the plant kingdom and you should have no difficultly getting them all. If you are worried though you should look for vegan/vegetarian vitamins to cover all of your bases and I recommend reading Becoming Vegetarian or Becoming Vegan to figure where to get your nutrients.

Hey! I just became a vegetarian a couple months ago. You can get vitamins for vegetarians at a local whole food store. I was told VeggieLite is great! Once I'm done with Womens One A Day, I'm gonna switch to a Veggie friendly vitamin. Good luck & glad to see you here! :)
