Technically, this is, in no way, a slip-up. This is more of an egg than a slip-up (although it's really neither).

I doubt that's true. I mean if the actor was a true vegan, couldn't they just get a soy steak or something, not write it into the script that he had to spit it out...

Actually, it is true. Jon Gries, who plays Uncle Rico, is a vegan and never swallowed the meat that he chews in the movie. It states this on imdb.com. I don't, however, see how this is a slipup. If it was done on purpose, why would it be a slipup?

Actually, it's a slip-up because Jon Gries spitting out his steak shouldn't be seen by the audience. He probably thought the camera wasn't aimed at him.

This is completely a slip-up. You arent' supposed to see him spit his food out, it's not an egg, because it was not done on purpose. It is a slip-up. He also doesn't drink milk. Watch the DVD with commentary, they talk about it.
