Is there a name for a vegetarian who..?

Question

dosen't eat meat, and dosen't drink milk or eat cheese, yogourt, etc., but eats carbs that contain milk? maybe a semi-vegan? LOL

Answer 1

it's technically called lacto-vegetarian

Answer 2

That's like saying you're a vegetarian who doesn't eat meat, but eats carbs that contain beef.

Unless the carbs you eat come from your own breast milk, you are NOT a vegan.  An individual who consumes animal products of any kind cannot be vegan.  Period.

Answer 3

vegans

Answer 4

There's no such thing as a semi-vegan.  You're either a vegan or not a vegan and vegans don't consume any type of animal product.

You are just a vegetarian- a lacto vegetarian.

Answer 5

Well, to simplify things, I'd say just vegetarian.

Try not to be super concerned about a label. It isn't the name that's important.

Answer 6

dairy is not meat, so it would still be considered vegetarian

Answer 7

As far as I know there isn't a name for that. It's just vegetarian.

Answer 8

I am vegan but every now and then I will use products that carry minute trace elements or derivatives of milk. Not enough to make you feel like your cheating.

Answer 9

lacto-vegetarian

Carbs that contain milk? WTF is that supposed to mean?

Answer 10

The term vegetarian allows for the consumption of dairy products, so that would make you a vegetarian.  Lacto-vegetarian if you like (and if you don't eat eggs.)
