Terminology:
Vegetarian: A vegetarian is an individual who chooses, for health, environmental, ethical, or religious reasons to abstain from the consumption of animal flesh, including poultry and fish.
Lacto-Ovo Vegetarian: A lacto-ovo vegetarian eats no flesh, but consumes dairy (lacto) and eggs (ovo).
Vegan: A vegan (pronounced VEE-gun) is an individual who chooses to abstain from the consumption of all animal products. While vegetarians avoid flesh foods, vegans also avoid dairy and eggs as well as fur, leather, and other goods that cause suffering to animals.
