Nearly half of meat eaters worry about a vegetarian turning up at their BBQ - with one in five feeling 'stressed or confused' about what to serve.
A study of 2,000 carnivores found 18% would have no idea what to serve a non-meat eater and one in four would feel unprepared.
Of the 45 per cent who worry about a veggie or vegan guest, top reasons included not wanting to buy the wrong thing and offend them and feeling under pressure to provide decent alternatives.
