What is the difference between being a lacto-ovo vegetarian and a vegan vegetarian?

Answer 1

VEGAN is not vegetarian....no animal, or animal or sea creature bi products are eaten or worn or drunk.Vegetarian eats no meat, but may choose to include dairy in their diet or eggs, and many wear leather, or other animal products, kangaroo, crocodile,etc

Answer 2

Lacto-ovo vegetarians don't eat meat because meat is the gruesome carcass of a murdered sentient being, i.e., the cousin of cannibalism. They do eat milk and egg products because those things are not gained by murdering an animal, but by merely squeezing an animal's mammary or raiding its nest for unfertilized embryos. Milk and egg products necessitate the exploitation and trickery of animals, fine, and it's a little wrong of us, a little embarrassing even. But it's a qualitative GALAXY away from murdering animals. Vegans will protest that the milk and egg factories are also cruel, but they don't seem to have their priorities straight. Stopping the murder is paramount, and once that's accomplished then start thinking about making the animals more comfortable...but at least vegans aren't those morally twisted activists who campaign for kinder slaughterhouses.

Answer 3

Lacto ovo in Latin means milk and eggs. The lacto-ovo vegetarian will eat some dairy products and Vegan is strictly no meat or dairy.

Answer 4

Lacto-ovo vegetarians eat milk and egg products. They also eat honey, Red 40, beeswax, etc.

Some also wear wool, leather, suede, and various other animal products, unlike vegans.

Answer 5

Lacto-ovo: you can still eat dairy products and eggs.
vegan vegetarian: you dont eat any animal products that animals make like milk and eggs.

Answer 6

Vegans eat NO animal by-products, meaning cheese milk eggs and sometimes honey.

Answer 7

L-O Veg still eat eggs and drink milk products (and cheese, yogurt)

Vegans don't eat eggs or drink milk, and they tend to stay away from anything that has animal products in it (some oils use animal products).

Answer 8

What's with the sudden influx of people using the term "vegan vegetarian"? It's kind of redundant...
