When it is said that vegetarians don't eat meat, does that include chicken and fish, too? Or is it just red meat? Or does it just depend on the vegetarian in question. What exactly is a vegan?

A true vegetarian does not eat meat or fish ever. There are different names for different diets however if they contain meat they are not vegetarian.

Vegetarians don't eat meat, that includes chicken and fish . . lacto ovo vegetarians eat cheese and eggs, vegans eat only things that have no connection to animals . . ie: things that grow on trees and from the ground, fruits veggies grains beans, but really nothing that is even slightly related to a living creature, for example, they don't eat honey . . .

Some vegetarians eat eggs and drink milk. They are called lacto-ovo vegetarians. Some eat fish too. Most don't eat either chicken or any kind of meat.

Yup. Vegetarians don't eat any meat. However, there are 3 levels of vegetarians, like Extreme one(No meat at all.), Semi(Well...maybe a bit of eggs and milk and cheese.), and Occasional(Eat meat only sometimes.) Got it?

A true vegetarian will not eat meat. mammals, fish, birds. Won't eat them. A vegan will eat NOTHING from an animal. NO mammals, fish birds, eggs, dairy.......nothing from a creature.

Vegetarians eat no animal flesh. Flesh is meat.
Vegan avoid ALL animal products including milk, eggs, honey, leather etc.
There is no such thing as a semi vegetarian or occasional vegetarian.

vegetarians eat no meat whatever, vegans eat no animal products. if it is not made with only vegetables or fruit, vegans refuse it.

I think that vegetarians that eat chicken and fish like to be called "flexitarians" not that it matters what people call themself ther are going to eat what they want.
