Answer 5

Great question!! here is the more in depth version of who eats what to help you out!!

Vegans don't eat any products of animal origin. This includes not only meat, but also dairy products (milk, butter, cheese), eggs and even honey. Many vegans do eat onion and garlic. The strictest vegans don't wear leather, wool or silk and also avoid health and beauty products made with ingredients derived from animals -- for instance, lip balm with bees wax or skin creams with lanolin (an oil extracted from sheep's wool). Although some people who choose a vegan diet do so because they are allergic or insensitive to dairy products or eggs, most choose veganism because of ethical concerns. Most vegans have a deep commitment to ending the exploitation and mistreatment of animals. The term vegan, formed from first three and last two letters of the word veg etari an , was coined in London in 1944 by seven vegetarians who founded the Vegan Society.

Lacto-vegetarians/ Religion vegetarians / Lactose-Vegetarians are strict vegetarians who may consume milk and dairy products (optional) . Strictly No meat, no fishes, no eggs, no onion and no garlic. Lacto comes from the Latin word for milk.

Ovo-vegetarians are people who still eat eggs. Ovo from the Latin word for egg.

Lacto-ovo-vegetarians / Ovo-Lacto-vegetarians are those who eat both dairy products and eggs.

Macrobiotics A macrobiotic diet is mainly vegetarian, but macrobiotic diets often include seafood. In this diet all other meat products are excluded, as are eggs and dairy products. They also do not eat "nightshade vegetables" (potato, pepper and eggplant), refined sugar and tropical fruits. This diet contains many foods found in Asian countries such as miso soup, root vegetables (daikon and lotus) and sea vegetables (seaweed, kelp, arame). It emphasizes eating locally grown foods that are in season. Meals consist of 50% to 60% grains, 25% locally grown produce, and the rest of the diet mainly consists of beans and soups. In lesser amounts fruits, nuts and seeds are eaten. This diet is based on the Chinese principles of yin and yang. Some people follow this diet as a philosophy of life and others follow it for health reasons.

Flexitarian - a vegetarian who is flexible enough to occasionally eat meat or fish.

Demi-vegetarians don't eat red meat or poultry, but they do eat fish, eggs.

Pescetarians / Pesco-Vegetarians / Pesce-Vegetarians eat a vegetarian diet but also consume fish. Pescetarians may avoid red meat and poultry because they do not want to support factory farming or other inhumane methods of raising animals. For many people making the transition to vegetarianism, pescetarianism is a stage along the way to an entirely meatless diet.

Pollo-Vegetarians eat poultry, such as chicken, turkey, and duck.

Meat Restrictors avoid red meat, but may eat fish and poultry.

Pescaterians

Vegetarian still eats fish occasionally.

Vegetarian Sympathizers - Folks who do eat meat, fish, and chicken --- but perhaps much less than they once did, and perhaps more carefully (they may choose organically raised meats). They lean somewhat towards a low- or no-meat way in their thinking. Frequently Sympathizers and Pesces are on the continuum towards a lacto- or vegan way of eating.

Partial, occasional, casual, transitional and social vegetarians As the media releases more and more reports on the health benefits of a vegetarian diet, the number of people who are curious about vegetarianism continues to grow. Many of these people choose to reduce their meat intake instead of eliminating meat from their diet altogether. They may choose to give up just red meat, or they may only eat meat when they know it comes from small-scale producers who treat their livestock humanely. They may want to eat a stricter vegetarian diet but are temporarily prevented from doing so -- for instance, parents with non-vegetarian children who aren't ready to become vegetarians. Or they may eat a vegetarian diet with at home with vegetarian friends or family members and only eat meat when they're out with non-vegetarian friends.

------------------

Practices of vegetarianism include:

Lacto vegetarianism — Lacto vegetarians do not eat meat or eggs but do consume dairy products. Most vegetarians in India and those in the classical Mediterranean lands, such as Pythagoreans, are or were lacto vegetarian.

Ovo-lacto vegetarianism (also called eggitarian colloquially in India) — Lacto-ovo vegetarians do not eat meat but do consume dairy products and eggs. This is currently the most common variety in the Western world.

Ovo vegetarianism — Ovo vegetarians do not eat meat or dairy products but do eat eggs.

Veganism — Those who avoid eating any animal products, including eggs, milk, cheese, and sometimes honey, are known specifically as dietary vegans or strict vegetarians. Most additionally avoid using animal products, such as leather and some cosmetics, and are called vegans.

Answer 19

It depends on how strict of a vegetarian you are. Eggs are not meat; however they are made by animals so vegan vegetarians don't eat them. A lot of vegetarians do, because it's a good source of protein and it's not killing any animals. Vegans refuse to eat anything made by animals, including honey, milk, cheese, and eggs.

Answer 20

It's vegetarian, since it's technically not meat, but not vegan, since vegans don't eat any animal products at all.

Answer 21

vegetarian. If you eat nothing from an animal you are a vegan. Vegetarians eat animal produce but not the flesh.

Answer 22

It is vegetarian but not vegan. Since a chicken egg was never alive, and thus, not an animal, most vegetarians feel okay about eating them. However, vegans (people who do not eat or otherwise use any part of an animal) will not eat eggs.

Contrary to what asmul8ed said, eggs do not contain embryos. The eggs are not fertilized and chickens do not reproduce asexually. Most battery hens will never even see a rooster, let alone get it on with one!

Answer 23

It is vegetarian;

but not vegan, because it comes from an animal. Vegans are very very picky!

Whereas vegetarians eat anything as long as it is not itself an animal.

By the way, an egg that is edible, like an egg from the grocery store, has not been fertilized, so it is NOT a chick in it's earliest stage. Once it is fertilized, it does not even look inside like a normal egg as we know it, so we definitely don't eat fertilized eggs. I'm about to say something with which I don't mean to be offensive, but it is the same as saying that a girl doesn't swallow because a sperm is a human being in it's earliest stage. We may put emphasis on an egg, but in reality, the sperm is the other half, and the egg can produce no life on its own unless it is fertilized.

Answer 24

egg is vegetarian but not totally vegan!
