Well, the obvious is that you can't eat meat. That also includes things like animal/meat flavoring, broth, ect.
Also, there are by-products of animals called gelatin and rennet (and more) which are basically enzymes. Rennet is found in most cheeses (check the label), and gelatin is found in many things such as candies, yogurts, some ice creams, processed foods, ect. Also whey is an animal product.
If you do an internet search, you can find many things! I hope this helps! Good luck on your project!:)

Lacto=milk and milk products.
Ovo=egg and products containing eggs.
Vegetarian=no meat.

well any dairy product, and eggs, +honey
uhm fruits, veggies, pastas, grains,
really anything besides meat, meat broth
some, like me, dont eat geletin,
I also dont eat anything cooked with meat
if there are like noodles cooked with sausage

They CAN eat whatever they choose.

They CHOOSE to not eat meat. The "lacto-ovo" refers to the fact that they DO eat dairy and eggs, or in other words, they're not VEGAN.

Animal meats and anything containing it.

For those who don't know:
Lacto is milk.
Ovo is eggs.

I'm not sure what exactly your homework is but if it requires anything more than a list of food, maybe try comparing Lacto Ovo Vegetarians with Vegans. In most cases they are both doing it for ethnical reasons, with different idea's for what constitutes animal exploitation. Vegan is more popular than it used to be and a lot of LOV's become Vegan, in turn, a lot of Vegans start out as LOV's.

I saw that someone on here put "Honey" as a source of food for LOV's. Honey is just one of those middle lines. Many bee's ARE killed in the process so some believe that no vegetarians should consume it. On the other hand, it is just a harvested producted so some people bypass the whole dead bee thing. Some farms intentially kill the bees at the end of the season to increase their profits by harvesting ALL the honey in the hive, leaving the bees to starve for the winter.

Overall, it may be more interesting to discuss the culture of the different types of vegetarians rather than just a list of food they eat.

Think she said 'can't' everyone seems to be answering can.
Well if you ver lacto-ovo vegetarian. You wouldn't eat any animals or slaughterhouse by products. So, no meat, products containing gelatine. No products made with whey containing animal rennet. No cheese made with non vegetarian rennet. No products containing cohineal (insect blood). And generally be carefull to check ingredients to avoid those things, check E numbers to check for no animal ingredients. NO FISH ! (people seem to forget they are animals too!)
