Can Vegetarians/Vegans only eat organic vegetables or can they have plain old ones too?

Question

And whats the difference?

Answer 1

Here's the classic anti-meat argument that is spewed by pasty-skinned veg-heads:

A) You shouldnt eat animals that come from feed lots...the animals are abused and full of chemicals.
B) Ok, from now on I will buy only free-range meat from Safeway.

A) You shouldnt buy meat from Safeway because they [insert typical Lib cry-baby thing like, "They exploit the labor of some turd-world country")
B) Fine. From now on I will only buy free range meat from reputable sellers who dont exploit workers

A) You know, you should really stop eating meat....go vegetarian....it's wrong to eat animals.
B)OK, I will only eat vegetable products, cheese, eggs, and milk that I buy at Joe's Grocery.

A) You shouldnt shop at joe's grocery....they have questionable investments in South America and are responsible for funding [insert more BS Lib agenda excuse]
B) Ok, from now on I will only purchase these items from a reputable grocer.

A) You shouldnt eat eggs and drink milk.....you should be a vegan...that way NO animal is exploited........
B) Sounds good....Ill go vegan.

A) You should only buy organic vegetables grown on co-op farms.......................

Where does it end?

Answer 2

That would depend on your level of fanaticism, if you really care about your body to the degree that you take that level of care and make those choices in your life then you would certainly choose organic veggies over the more readily obtainable types. If you are trying to make as many healthy choices as possible then yes. But if you are in an area where they re not as easily obtainable, or you are on a limited budget, then you may choose to be vegan or Vegetarian but still eat the more easily obtainable varieties.

Answer 3

Of course you can-the veggie police wont come calling, I promise! lol. The organics are much better for you as they were not treated with pesticides, fungicides, and animal manure. Even a good washing wont remove all of the residue. Many common pesticides, such as auxigrow are loaded with MSG and other harmful compounds. I dont like to ingest something that was meant to kill something else. Its worth the price difference, I think

Answer 4

Technically yes, they can eat both. You serious? Geez...

Organic has nothing to do with being vegetarian/vegan.

Answer 5

The difference between organic and normal vegetables is the non-use or use of pesticides and chemical ferilisers. There is no other difference.

Answer 6

wow, you are really great with asking dumb questions.

Answer 7

idiot! they can eat any veggie that they want to
