Visiting brazil -- food concerns?

I'm visiting brazil for the first time with some family who is from there and going to be with their family and friends who live in brazil (rio de janeiro). I am concerned because I am a vegetarian (no meat of any kind including seafood)... am i going to starve? It is not like I can just say "ok today i'll eat this chicken" because I have not had it in so long my body will be sick (i'm positive of this!). What can I eat?

If I were to try to "train" myself to see if there's a seafood i can maybe eat or maybe a little bit of chicken, woudl that help? Or would I still have little to eat because there is so much beef and pork?

Any assistance would be appreciated.

It is only to inform the lady of the house that you are vegetarian.

Brazil is one of the largest producers world of foods, we Have one of the most varied offer of fruits and vegetables, we are the largest world producer of soy meat, soy milk and as we have influence of all of the countries of the world the diversity of foods is enormous, we have several restaurants vegetarian (Vergano) of those that don't use nor cow milk, only soy milk. We have restaurant of macrobiotic food, and of Indian food. For lack of food (without meat) it is that you won't die from hunger.

In all of the neighborhoods of the Brazilian cities free markets are armed once a week for sale of fruits and fresh vegetables. The super-markets have a great offer of vegetables and fruits.

In Brazil, although they have AWESOME meats (no offense), they also have many different foods that don't have to have meat. Such as pasteis (when you go you will know what they are), fresh rolls from the bakerys, and all the fresh fruits, and veggies you can imagine. There are so many more things just it would never fit on this page. Because you like fruits and vegetables, you will LOVE Brazil. Don't worry. :)

I'll sum it up quite simply: I've got plenty of vegetarian friends, and all of them seem to be fine, don't worry and enjoy your trip!

Also, if its Rio you're going to, try out the restaurant "Nirvana" - I hear it serves REALLY good vegetarian food

Honey Brazilian cooking history is in every bite of the country's food. Native Indians developed corn porridge, cassava meal, sweet potatoes, many roots, hearts of palm, many species of game and fish, and the preservation of meats by smoking and drying.

Try their top dishes
Bolinhos de Arroz (little rice balls)
Caipirinha (brandy cocktail)
Camarao na Moranga (Winter squash with shrimp)
Coconut Milk
Couve Minera (kale)
Coxinhas (Mock chicken legs)
Farofa de Manteiga (buttered manioc meal)
Moqueca de Camarao (shrimp stew)
Mugunza (hominy dessert)
Peixe Ensopado (fish stew)
Picandinho de Porco (minced pork)
