What is someone called when they don't eat eggs,meat, or dairy, but still consume whey through by products?!


Question: I don't think there's a special name to describe your diet; it would be considered vegetarian. If you wanted to be specific, you could tell people that you have a "vegan-ish" or "mostly vegan" diet.

Opposing the cruelties of factory farming isn't an all-or-nothing proposition. By reducing the dairy and eggs in your diet, you're already doing so much to prevent farmed animals from suffering. Going vegan is a very gradual process for many people. So feel free to do whatever feels right for you, whether that means maintaining your current diet, gradually transitioning to a vegan diet, or taking another approach. Good luck!

lacto-vegetarian...whey is dairy!

Vegetarian. My vegetarian boyfriend doesn't actually drink milk or eat eggs, but he will eat foods containing them.

Whey is dairy.

They would be a lacto vegetarian.

Lactic acid is more often than not vegan.

Laktovegetarians can consume any milk product. Lakto means milk in latin. Those who are consuming milk products and eggs are laktoovovegetarian, ovo means egg in latin. Those who not eating milk products and eggs are vegans.
I hope this helped to understand.

yes, you have to do whats best for your beliefs, but you have to also be realistic.

When life is a little slower! you can change things they way your ideals are.

good luck!

Strict vegetarian. The effort is great but thats still not vegan.

Lacto Vegetarian.
