This is the attitude of a lot of non-vegetarian catering chefs when they are catering vegetarian meals. You absolutely do get protein deficiency, because they just take meat-oriented recipes and replace the meat with eggplant. Or they just put lettuce salad, and like nothing else.
(I do occasional volunteer work for a pretty progressive organization that probably has some vegetarians in it. They feed us, but sometimes they are forced to use cheap crappy convention center catering that doesn’t know how to cook vegetarian food.)
