Just like organic and natural, many people often get confused between vegan and vegetarian (including myself a few months ago). Whether it is for ethical, health, environmental reasons or just simply for pleasure, it is important to know the difference between vegan and vegetarian.
Differences Between Vegan and Vegetarian
Vegetarian:
1. Avoid meat, poultry, and seafood.
2. Some vegetarians may consume animal products like dairy and eggs, some don’t.
Vegans:
1. Avoid meat, poultry, and seafood.
2. Avoid foods produced using animals or animal products in any way, including honey, dairy, and eggs.
3. Many vegans also avoid clothing (leather, wool, and silk), cosmetic products, household items or other items made from animal products.
4. Some vegans may avoid products that are tested on animals.
Different Types of Vegetarian Diets
Actually, veganism is actually a sub-category of vegetarian diets. The most common types of vegetarians are vegan, lactovegetarian, lacto-ovo vegetarians, and ovo vegetarian. Here is a comparison of the three and other diets:
