A vegetarian eats things that have both eggs and dairy, just no meat.
A vegan is a vegetarian that will not eat or use any animal products: no eggs, no dairy, no honey ... only things that are from plants and animals didn't make. They also won't wear wool or use any product that has bi-products in it that come from animals... basically everything from soap to clothes to food has to be simply plant-based.
vegetarians still eat dairy and eggs. vegans do not eat ANY animal product nor wear them (leather, etc)
Nothing. Vegan is just the new cool word to use for vegetarian. Kind of like "neocon" is for conservatives.
Vegetarian = weird
Vegan = weirder
Vegetarians may eat eggs and milk, maybe fish.
Vegans eat nothing made from an animal.
4th level vegans eat nothing that casts a shadow (according to the Simpsons).
LOL...yeah, this guy who says it's the same thing, like "neocon" for "conservative"...wrong on both counts.
Vegan does not eat any animal products. That includes eggs, milk, fish, etc. Anything that you can think of- if any part of it was ever an animal, usually, Vegans won;t eat it. Although i've never been able to do it, its an interesting lifestyle.
A Vegetarian does not eat meat at all. Some include fish with this, but usually its no beef, chicken, pork, veal, venison. no meat at all. They do, however, eat animal products, like milk, eggs and cheese.
Its pretty hard to stop eating meat right away. If you want, try dropping red meat altogether and eat only chicken or fish to get used to resisting meat and keeping an eye on that foods you eat.
Just remember, anything you decided to cut out of your diet has nutrients that are important for your body to operate correctly. This means that the things in meat (protein, iron, etc. ) have to be replaced by something else. For example - red meat has a lot of iron in it. if you cut out red meat, then your body still needs that iron and you need to get it some other way. Fresh spinach is packed with iron. If you decide to do this, make sure you listen to your body, and pay attention to it!
Finally, cutting meat out of your diet is great if you have high cholesterol or you disagree with the treatment of the animals. If you're doing it solely to lose weight, i would just cut red meat and exercise 20 minutes a day, three times a week to start.
good luck!
Traditionally a Vegetarian does not eat meat, but will still eat animal products (cheese, milk, eggs (sometimes), fish (sometimes), etc. A Vegan does not eat any animal products at all.

Vegans - eat only plant material - not animal flesh nor products
Vegetarians - eat plant material but also eggs , milk and other dairy products (because of this they can also be called : ovo-lacto-vegetarians.)
Good luck with your store.
Veganism (also known as strict vegetarianism or pure vegetarianism) is a philosophy and lifestyle that avoids using animals and animal products for food, clothing and other purposes. In practice, a vegan (an adherent of veganism) commits to the abstention from consumption or use of animal products, including meat, fish, poultry, honey, eggs and dairy products, as well as articles made of fur, wool, bone, leather, feathers, pearls, nacre, coral, sponges and other materials of animal origin. Many vegans also avoid products that have been tested on animals.
Vegetarianism is the practice of not consuming meat, with or without the use of other animal derivatives, such as dairy products or eggs. Some people choose to refrain from wearing clothing derived from animals, such as leather and fur. Veganism, in particular, excludes all animal products from diet and attire, whether or not this involves the actual death of an animal (dairy, eggs, honey, down feathers and silk). Vegetarians are found in countries across the world with varied motivations including religious, ethical, environmental, and health concerns.
Vegetarian usually don't eat any type of flesh .. no fish, seafood, chicken, beef, turkey,etc. But they do eat milk products (cheese, yougurt, etc.) Some vegetarians eat eggs, but not all. Vegans don't eat anything that came from an animal, not even milk.
Vegetarians only eat vegitables and dairy they do not eat meat of any kind
Vegans do not eat meat or anything derived from animals such as milk, eggs,etc
Vegan are the like alqaida of vegetarianism.
Like they are ultra ultra anti meat or animal products. No milk cheese for them, it is from animal origin.
Normal vegetarians are like moderates, they won't pounce on you for eating cheese.
A "vegetarian" is someone who does not eat meat, but may eat fish, eggs, or dairy products.
A "vegan" is someone who eats grains, nuts, some fruits, but very little else.
Vegan crudely put are HERBIVORES. Only plants, roots and non blood-pumping stuff
Vegetarian eats dairy product on top of their plants and roots and non blood pumping stuff
Vegetarian eats only vegetables and animal products like milk ,cheese, eggs
vegan strictly eat vegetables only.
don't think anything is different besides spelling
vegetarians do not eat meat,
vegans do not have anything to do with any animal products... food, clothing, anything
Vegetarians still have a sense of humor. Vegans are like cult followers and have NO sense of humor left at all. I rip on these dopes all the time because they take themselves so damn seriously. Just read some of their ten page answers....sheeze!
