I am getting so annoyed by what people think a vegetarian is?!
there are different types:
~ lacto-ovo vegetarian- eat no meat but have dairy products
~ vegen- eat no meat or dairy products
~ lacto vegetarian- no meat but has dairy products except eggs
~ Flexitarian(semi)- once in awhile eat small
amounts of meat
I know vegetarians who eat a little bit of meat once in a while because of low iron or protein and that kind of stuffWww@FoodAQ@Com

Answers:
Vegetarians with low iron and protien are vegetarians who
didn't do research on the foods!. It's easy to get that stuff
by the way!.!.!.
Vegans abstain from more than meat and dairy!. also eggs,
gelatin, animal tested products (shampoos, make ups ect)
leather, honey!. Anything animal related!.
No idea what your question actually was!. It seemed more like
a statement to me!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It's not very difficult!. Vegetarians do not eat any foods that kill an animal (not just mammals, poultry and seafood, but also slaughter bi-products like gelatin, lard, rennet, etc)!. Some eat dairy and eggs, some don't!.
Vegans do not eat anything that use an animal!. This includes dairy and eggs, but also honey!. Veganism, by definition, is the whole lifestyle not just the diet, so a vegan does not use leather, silk, tallow, etc!.
Someone who eats meat is not a vegetarian!. They can call themselves one, but they aren't!. Why does it matter!? Because words have meaning - you can't call yourself a PhD if you haven't earned your doctorate!. You can't call yourself a painter if you've never picked up a paint brush!. People who eat meat and call themselves vegetarian make things more difficult for those who really are vegetarian!. We go out to eat and thanks to someone else the reasturant is under the misconception that it's okay to cook with chicken stock, or have fish in something, etc!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

There are no different types of vegetarians!. The definition of a vegetarian is "a person who does not eat or does not believe in eating meat, fish, fowl, or, in some cases, any food derived from animals, as eggs or cheese, but subsists on vegetables, fruits, nuts, grain, etc!."(1)
You know people that claim to be vegetarians, but the fact is they are not!. People can call themselves anything they want, it does not make it a fact!. A person that eats a vegetarian diet and includes meat(no matter how infrequently), is called an omnivore!.
Actual vegetarians tend to get annoyed when people claim they are vegetarian, but continue to eat meat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I'm pretty new to the vegetarian ways, and I'm in fact still learning what you can and cannot eat, but, while I don't like people who claim they're vegetarians and then eat meats on the side, all the different ways of classifying vegetarians really gets on my nerves!. There shouldn't be all these stupid labels!.
As far as I'm concerned, if you don't eat meat (in any form) you're a vegetarian!. If you eat meat, you're not!. Whether you eat eggs (the unfertalized kind) or drink milk, is your decision and shouldn't affect whether or not you're a vegetarian or not!.
Those people who say "If you eat eggs and drink milk, you're not a REAL vegetarian!" piss me off more than anything!. Excuse me!? I'm not REAL!? What the frakk am I then, imaginary huh!?
Get a dictionary people: veg·e·tar·i·an [vèjj? térree ?n]
n (plural veg·e·tar·i·ans)
somebody not eating meat or fish: somebody who eats vegetables, fruits, grains, seeds, and usually eggs and dairy products, but not meat or fish
As long as you're not consuming meat or some kind, you're a vegetarian!. It's that simple!. All these labels just make people feel better about themselves and and justify the slaughtering of animals!.
also, people probably have a different opinion, but I consider vegans to be seperate from vegetarians rather than a sub-category!. It's also my understanding that vegans don't just not eat meat or dairy products, but also foods produced by living things, including fruit, unless it falls from its tree!.
Hope that helps!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You actually annoyed me with your last statement!. If you eat meat AT ALL, you are NOT a vegetarian!. There is no need to eat meat at all!. I get plenty of iron and protein and I'm vegan!. I even had tests done and I've never felt better since I've been vegan!. Yours friends should do some research on where to get their vitamins from

Flexitarian is a load of crap!. You're either a veggo or you are an omnivore!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

i used to be like jeff, but now i think vegetarian in the future, just what hitler said!.
i mean sure we ate a lot more meat in our evolutionary history, but look at the neaderthals, and all these pre- homo sapiens, didn't they have better teeth for eating meat!? we're still evolvingWww@FoodAQ@Com

First off, if you are going to be so passionate about the terms, please learn to spell them correctly!. Second, who cares!? Are you the veggie police!? Let people eat what they want, call themselves what they want, and don't worry about it!. Its not worth getting annoyed over!Www@FoodAQ@Com
The only people who worry about the labels are the vegetarians!. The rest of us are just happy to let you do your thing without putting a label on you!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
yeah i know im a FlexitarianWww@FoodAQ@Com
Its dumb!. Humans evolved to eat meat!. Thats why we have incisor teeth!. To bite off pieces of meat!. Humans are evolutionary omnivores!. That means they have evolved to eat both!. You can formulate a special diet to avoid eating meat but its completely unnatural!.
Its not only OK to eat meat but its also part of our natural being!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
