A person who does not eat parts of dead animals. Vegetarians correctly do not make a distinction between [red meat] and not red meat, and as such do not consume any kind of seafood or poultry. Some people who seek to put forward a stoic, [ascetic] or progressive image may claim to be vegetarian while still eating fish or birds. These poseurs often give themselves the [oxymoronic] label of pecso-vegetarians. The reasons for abstaining from animal flesh are typically, ethical, religious, ecological, health-related or economic. Vegetarians who also shun animal products such as milk, eggs and honey are called vegans (VEE- GEHNS). Ethical/environmental vegetarians and vegans also often avoid animal-derived goods such as leather, [tallow] in soaps, etc.

Often confused as the definition of a person who doesnt [eat meat], but thats only because most [Vegetarians] dont eat meat, either.

Someone who realises its perfectly natural to eat meat, but chooses not to because of the torture, humiliation, pain, misery, suffering and disrespect of animals. All brought about by the greed of certain money obsessed corporations and the ignorance of the (somewhat uneducated) mass public.

Eating animals used to be necessary in the stone age, but we now have the knowledge and resources to follow a healthy vegan diet. Contrary to popular belief, it IS possible to follow a vegetarian diet and still consume adequate protein. Soy products and other legumes contain amounts of protein comparable to meat, and also contain less fat. Most vegetarians are thinner and healthier than people who eat meat, and live on average 7 years longer.

  • Someone who must constantly justify him/herself, due to the fact that many meat-eaters feel threatened/intimidated by vegetarians and react by making ignorant, offensive comments to make themselves feel better.
  • One who does not eat meat. This includes fish and poultry (chicken and fish are not plants!)

    • not to be confused with [vegan]

Many times vegetarians believe that killing animals today for food is immoral and unnecessary because we are able to survive off of other foods. A person who doesn't eat any meat except for fish is a pescatarian. A person who doesn't eat any meat or other animal products such as eggs, milk, and cheese is a vegan.

Some choose so for ethical reasons while others may simply be grossed out by the prospect of eating flesh. Despite claims to the contrary, most vegetarians are not elitist or prejudiced. Another false argument also includes that eating only plant matter kills more rodents, etc which it doesn't. In order to eat beef for instance, it takes far more energy and resources to grow food for them (as opposed to eating it directly) and then killing the cows on top of it. There've been many proposals for third world countries to focus on farming as opposed to ranching because, if done properly, it takes far less resources and land space. Another common argument is that it destroys
