Answer 1

There are different levels to being a vegetarian.

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

Lacto-ovo vegetarianism ) — Lacto-ovo vegetarians do not eat meat but do consume dairy products and eggs.

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 honey, are known specifically as dietary vegans or strict vegetarians. Most additionally avoid using animal products, such as leather and some cosmetics.

The following are less common practices of vegetarianism:

Fruitarianism is a diet of only fruit, nuts, seeds, and other plant matter that can be gathered without harming the plant. Some fruitarians eat only plant matter that has already fallen off the plant. Thus, a fruitarian will eat beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, pumpkins, and the like, but will refuse to eat potatoes or spinach.
Natural Hygiene, in its classic form, includes a diet principally of raw vegan foods.

A macrobiotic diet is a diet consisting mostly of whole grains and beans and is usually spiritually based, like fruitarianism.

The following similarly named diets are considered varieties of semi-vegetarianism:

Pesco/pollo vegetarianism — Some people choose to avoid certain types of meat for many of the same reasons that others choose vegetarianism: health, ethical beliefs, etc. For example, some people will not eat "red meat" (mammal meat – beef, lamb, pork, etc.) while still consuming poultry and seafood. It may also be used as an interim diet by individuals who are on a path to becoming fully vegetarian.

Lacto-ovo-pesco vegetarianism — This refers to people who eat milk, eggs, fish, and possibly shellfish, but no other type of meat. Often carried out in opposition to the slaughtering methods of mammilian animals and poultry, but not fish and shellfish.

Flexitarianism — Flexitarians adhere to a diet that is mostly vegetarian but occasionally consume meat.

Freeganism — Freegans practice a lifestyle based on concerns about the exploitation of animals, the earth, and human beings in the production of consumer goods. Many tend towards veganism, but this is not an inherent practice. Those that eat meat generally support the arguments for vegetarianism, but as freeganism is concerned about waste, freegans prefer to make use of discarded commodities than to allow them to go to waste and consume landfill space.

Answer 2

Oh yuk. I could never live on a diet of vegetables alone. I love food and I would STARVE!!!!

I'm a vegetarian, I do eat vegetables, but I also eat fruits, grains, nuts, seeds, and legumes. I am a lacto-ovo vegetarian, which means I also add dairy products and eggs to my diet, but they are not necessary for health. I'm trying to cut back the eggs and dairy, but I love them an awful lot.
