Vegetarians eat no meat, but can have milk products and eggs?!


Question: Vegetarians eat no meat, but can have milk products and eggs!?
And it would be called veganism if you cut out the eggs and milk and all the other animal derived substances!? Do I understand this right!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
That's pretty much it!.

Most people in the US who call themselves vegetarian are lacto-ovo-vegetarians, meaning they eat both dairy and eggs!. There are also lacto-vegetarians who eat dairy but not eggs (most Indian vegetarians are lacto-) and some ovo-vegetarians who eat eggs but not dairy!.

Some people who cut out eggs, dairy and honey identify themselves as "strict," "pure" or "total" vegetarians, rather than vegans!. This is because veganism really extends beyond diet to other aspects of lifestyle as well (clothing, toiletries and other consumer goods made without animal ingredients or testing!.)Www@FoodAQ@Com

unless they are an octo vegetarian then they don't consume dairy products only eggs!.

The word for people who have no products at all that come from animals is Vegan!.
