Why no eggs for vegetarians?


Answers:
Vegitarians break down as follows
Pesco:eats fish
Lacto-Ovo:eats Eggs and Milk products
Vegans:No animal products, including usually honey.
Freegan: Pref. Vegan, but will eat anything.

There are a few more, but all vegitarians have their own rules anyway.

Some Vegitarians consider eggs, fertilized or not, meat.

SOME vegetarians do not eat ANY dairy products at all but some do.

I think It's no eggs for vegans. they don't eat anything that has come from an animal including dairy products

vegetarians eat eggs.................
its vegans that dont.......................

Vegans don't eat eggs because they're an animal product.

I dont know... most vegitarians that i know just think they are gross

some vegetarians eat eggs just like some it fish but no other meat if you thinking about goin veggi you really should iam

Because eggs come from birds (chicken mostly), and vegetarians don't eat meat.

For your information, some vegetarians do eat eggs, but not meat. There are different kinds of vegetarians.

Baby Chickens

Some Vegetarians will not eat anything that came from an animal. Eggs, Cheese, Milk, etc.
My mother was a Vegetarian, but ate all those things.

It is usually a stricter type of Veggie-monster.

Umm, my guess, is it came from a chicken and they don't eat meats or poultry. So , therefore they dont eat the UNBORN offspring of the chicken.

An egg is not a vegetable. Vegetarians eat only vegetables

only some vegetarians follow that rule.Most do it becasuse they dont eat anything that comes from an animal i.e milk ,eggs,cheese mostly things that conatin diary

Well its suppose to be no eggs for vegan but since eggs are dead chickens in a egg.. its an early process of meat.

Because eggs are the mensuration of a bird. That's gross.
Just like dead bodies (meat).

I am a vegetarian and I eat eggs and I drink dairy milk.& even eat some cheese as long as there's no animal fat in it.. (no animals had to be killed to consume things things.) Vegetarians don't eat meat because animals have to be killed to eat meat.. that includes poultry and fish! Easy to be a Vegetarian
It is Vegans that don't eat meat, poultry,fish,
eggs, dairy products. It's hard to become a Vegan!
I don't want to give up cheese or margerine or cottage cheese! As for milk some soya milk
or rice milk is cheaper than Regular Milk! I get
which ever milk is cheapest at stores! Sometimes I do get milk from Goats or Cows from a farm!

Vegans don't eat any animal products. This also includes milk and cheese.
Many vegetarians eat eggs, milk, and cheese.

Eggs (if fertilized) have the possibility of becoming a chicken.
The eggs you buy at the store have almost no chance being fertilized (unless from free range chickens) and couldn't have ever become chickens.

it gives them gas

Vegetarians do eat eggs, its vegans that dont

While most eggs you find in supermarkets are unfertilized, and therefore could never be a chicken anyways, I still abstain from eggs (especially ones commonly found in supermarkets) due to the inhumane way (cramped, dirty cages) the chickens were raised who produced those eggs.

Eggs sucks..

Lacto ovo vegetarians do eat eggs, but lacto vegetarians don't. Eggs are not considered to be an animal, because the eggs you get in the store are not alive. The eggs have not been fertilzed, and there isn't, never was, or never will be a chick within them.

Lacto-ova vegetarians can eat all the eggs they want. Vegans cut all the animal products out, therefor, no eggs. Factory farming sucks, chickens have a pretty sh*tty time, some don't support it by avoiding what they're producing. Some veiw eggs as unborn fetuses.....it's a matter of opinion

Two reasons.

Egg-laying hens are treated very cruelly (look it up) and later slaughtered after past their prime.

Male chicks are ground up alive because they are useless. Being a different breed, they can't be used for meat.

So even though the egg feels no pain, you are indirectly contributing to pain.

Vegetarians do eat eggs, vegans do not. There is a sub-category of veggies that do noy eat eggs but the group name escapes me today.

Unfertilised eggs are not, and never will be, an animal.

David ( above ) is right. Hence I only eat eggs from out own chickens which are free to roam around the fields and live a full, natural life. If they don't lay, thats up to them.

We also end up with a paddock of cockerals who are allowed to life a full and natural life

I know that Vegans do not eat eggs but I am a Vegetarian and I do eat eggs.

some chicken farms do terrible things to the chickens that produce eggs
most vegheads eat free range eggs

Well, EVEN in the FREE RANGE area, male "hens" are killed because they won't produce eggs.

They're killed by a grinding machine, or they are left to choke in plastic bags, or get run over by construction machines in plastic bags....

That's the truth, unfortunately.
