Vegetarians dont eat meat from any animal, including pork, beef, chicken and fish or sea foods. Some vegetarians eat eggs and dairy, and some dont, it just depends on the person.

Vegans dont eat any animal proteins or animal by-products. This is the most extreme form of vegetarian diet, as vegans get all of their nutrition from grains, vegetables, fruits, legumes, nuts and seeds. And vegans must avoid a large number of commercially produced foods that contain animal proteins – most breads are made with eggs, for example, and many non-dairy products are thickened with casein, a protein extracted from milk. Even vegetarian "burgers" often contain eggs! Despite the challenges, the vegan diet has steadily grown in popularity in recent years as more and more vegetarians have become savvy label-readers and vegan-friendly food companies have created more products for them to enjoy.

So there you go, vegetarians just dont eat meat, while vegans dont eat any animal products, including honey.

Hope this helps

Vegetarians can still be healthy.

Vegans begin to look like they are starving to death within a year or two, and begin to suffer the effects of B12 deficiency within 3-5 years. You know them - everything begins to deteriorate - muscle atrophy, hip bones jut out, sunken cheeks, hair becomes ratty, chronic fatigue, and denial that any of it is the result of veganism. Women sometimes stop menstruating and cannot become pregnant. Lanugo - a wooly, furry hair which is a symptom of anorexia nervosa, often develops. Hard to see since vegans are often covered completely in clothes, desperately trying to keep warm.
Oh, and by the way - B12 supplements are fine, but the B12 comes from animals.

Veganism, practice of excluding all animal products and their derivatives from the diet for moral, social, or religious motives. Veganism has stricter principles than vegetarianism—meat, poultry, and fish are all rejected, but so are animal-derived foodstuffs, such as dairy produce and gelatin. Most vegans, adherents of veganism, also condemn the wearing of fur and leather.

A vegan does not eat anything that is from an animal--no animal products--that includes milk and cheese--all dairy products--and eggs...--and of course meat--honey and other animal products are probably also not used...Vegetarians just don't eat meat--some still eat eggs adn most eat dairy--In fact, some people who call themselves vegeatrians even eat fish--they call it fruit of the sea...

A vegan won't eat anything that comes from an animal, while a vegetarian might consume eggs and milk products.

A Vegetarian eats plants and eggs, milk and a few eat cheese. We Vegetarians have to be careful with cheese, we have to make sure the cheese is made without animal rennet!
It's simple difference Vegans don't eat, cheese or milk they eat only plants! They'd have soya milk not real milk or rice milk not real milk. rice and soya are plant products!

A vegan is a vegetarian who, unlike a vegetarian, does not eat anything derived from animals. They do not eat things from animals, such as milk, which comes from cows.
