Answers:
The definition of vegetarian differs between people, they just define it differently to you!.
Your definition is quite specific and is I guess the "correct" definition, as it what is used in books and scientific literature!. But their definition is based more on social constructs and perception!. Its like how some people call themselves vegetarian when they eat chicken and fish!.
I would explain what you define to be vegetarian to them, and explain that there are different types, and that vegetarianism is different for everyone!. What they are describing sounds more like a vegan!.
Just work with them so they understand a bit better!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
