VegetarianĀ
- Doesn’t eat animal flesh but they may consume other animal-based foods like eggs and diary.
- Vegetarianism has several subpopulations:
- Lacto-ovo vegetarians eat dairy (lacto) and eggs (ovo)
- Lacto-vegetarians eats dairy but not eggs
- Ovo-vegetarians eats eggs but not dairy
- Flexitarians (flexible & vegetarian) eat mostly plant-based foods but occasionally eat meat, poultry, or fish too
- Semi-vegetarians exclude some meats (usually red meat) but still consume limited amounts of poultry, fish or seafood
- Pescatarians eat fish and shellfish, but no other animal flesh. They may or may noot include dairy and eggs
When you think about it, they’re both plant-based for the most part, they’re just defined on what you exclude.
