What is the difference between vegetarian and vegan?!
I can understand why some people don't eat meat!.
Some people don't eat milk and eggs either!. Why!? Once, a person told me she wasn't eating eggs because she thought that the chick inside the egg would die!. But only fertilized eggs contain chick embryos!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Vegetarians don't consume meat!. This involves the enzyme rennet/rennin which is the extract from the stomachs of calves and lambs - it's used to curdle milk in foods like cheese and junket, gelatin is also another thing they don't eat (or shouldn't) - which is a mixture of proteins that come from animal bones, it's like a jelly almost - and it's found in most desserts!.
Vegans don't consume meat, dairy products, eggs, honey and any other product derived from an animal!. Vegans also don't wear leather, suede, wool, silk and any product or material that comes from an animal!. Vegans also don't wear cosmetics or brands that test on animals!.
The reason vegans go to such drastic measures is because the farming and dairy industries all over the world are exploiting animals in such inhumane and cruel ways!. A vast majority of vegans are vegans purely for animal rights!. Lots of people don't understand veganism - and most of these people don't know what kinds of things happen behind the scenes in farms to these cows and chickens and what not!.
The cows are made to produce more then 10L of milk per day, which is not only unnatural but completely inhumane!. The cows fall over due to the weight of their udders and eventually die!. Cows also have to be kept pregnant to keep producing milk for human consumption!. When the baby calf is born it doesn't recieve any of this milk from it's mother (which is depriving the baby because it is rightly theirs), and if the calf is male it is slaughtered and sold as veal because it is useless otherwise!. The female baby calf is raised and either used for meat in later stages of life or as a dairy cow - which is eventually slaughtered for meat anyway!.
So as a vegan myself, I feel great by not contributing to this animal cruelty!. It breaks my heart, and anyone who doesn't agree is just heartless!. Those who say they don't understand people who are vegans - I've got one thing to say to them, I don't understand how you can be so oblivious and turn a blind eye to things like this occuring in today's society!?!? Enlighten me!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

When you are a vegetarian, it depends on what kind of vegetarian you are!. Ovo-lacto vegetarians don't consume any kind of flesh, or products derived from animal parts (like oils made from animals, gelatin, etc!.)!. Ovo-vegetarians don't consume flesh, products derived from animal parts, or dairy products!. Lacto-vegetarians don't consume flesh, products derived from animal parts, or eggs!. Vegans don't cosume ANY animal products, whether it's flesh, products derived from animals, dairy products, eggs, or honey!.
If you are asking why people are vegans, you apparently have no idea of what happens to the animals the products are produced by!.
In egg farms, chickens that produce the eggs are froced to live in giant houses, full of row, after row, after row of HUNDREDS of chickens!. They have very little to no room to move around becuse of the other chickens surrounding them!. This is what I mean: http://www!.eggfarmers!.org!.au/welfare/ima!.!.!.
Cows cannot lactate without giving birth or getting pregnant!. What happens many times is that the cow is artificially inseminated, or they can naturally give birth!. (The cow naturally giving birth of course, creates veal calves, which for once, gives a reason NOT to consume something organic!) If they do give birth, the calf isn't usually kept, but rather shipped off to a veal farm!. There, it is kept in a pen, in which has little to no room for them to move around!. While her child is being murdered, the mother is having the milk, originally meant for her calf, being taken from her through machines that automatically milk her!. Those machines are used way too often, and sometimes cut the udders of the cow, often causing sores that PRODUCE PUS, WHICH ENDS UP IN THE MILK!. So, the biggest reasons why people should be vegans and not consume dairy products is because they are taking a product that is not rightfully theirs, not made for humans, CONTAINS PUS, and isn't even that healthy, due to the high amounts of saturated fat and calories!.
By the way, whatever idiot told you about the eggs containing containing chicks has no idea about biology!. You were right, only FERTILIZED eggs can contain embryos!.

Vegans don't drink milk/cheese because the oppose the treatment and suffering that dairy cows have to go through!. To give milk the dairy cow has to be pregnant or shortly after giving birth!. The calf is taken from it's mother and if it is a girl it is put back into the "process", if it is a boy, 1 in 5 are sent to veal producers that confine the calf in a tight crate and feed it a iron low diet (to keep its meat white), slaughtering it between 3-7 months of age!. The other calfs are killed on dairy property because they are too expensive to feed!. The milk cows are not free roam and live their lives in large industrial sheds!.
Vegans do not eat eggs because of the abuse and suffering that the chickens receive!. Egg hens are confined to small cages, often 5 to a cage where they live out there lives in suffering!. also, the egg laying process of a chicken is like the egg laying process of a human female!. Humans females get rid an egg once a month (whether it is fertilized or not)!. Chickens lay about once a day!. A chickens egg (unfertilized or not) is incased in a shell since the give "birth" to eggs!. In all actuality, if you eat eggs, you are eating the mentral cycle of a chicken!. Vegans ask "why someone would do that!?"
With vegans it is a matter of not needing to enslave another species to get nutrition that we can obtain from a plant source!. It is a matter of compassion and caring!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

The difference between a vegan and a vegetarian is that a vegan eliminates all animal products from his or her diet, including dairy!. Those following a vegan lifestyle generally do not wear leather and avoid products made from animals such as wool, silk and down!. Vegans’ tremendous humanity for animals is an abiding, overriding conviction in their lives!.
Vegetarians do not eat meat, fish or poultry, but might eat dairy products such as cheese, eggs, yogurt or milk!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Some people don't eat animal products because it is gross!!! Chicken eggs may never develop into babies but you are still eating embryonic sludge!. also most egg laying chickens live short, horrible lives and are treated terribly (they sit in their own waste and have there beaks cut off there face and are killed very young)!. Same with dairy cows!. I will not support that!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
