Vegan Vs. Vegetarian-Blog #5

There are many different types of vegetarians:


  • Semi-Vegetarian is when someone who consumes dairy products, eggs, chicken, and fish, but does not consume other animal flesh.

  • Ovo-Lacto-Vegetarian is someone who does not consume meat, poultry, fish, and seafood, but do consume eggs and milk.(This is the most popular)

  • Ovo-Vegetarian is someone who would be vegan but they eat eggs.

  • Lacto-Vegetarian is someone who would be vegan but they drink milk.

Vegans are the strictest of all these categories. Vegans do not consume any animal products or by-products. Some go as far as not even consuming honey and yeast. Others do not wear any clothing made from animal products.


I would choose to be a Semi-Vegetarian because they are still able to eat everyday products that provide adequate protein people need on a daily bases.
