What is a vegetarian?
The word ‘vegetarian' comes from the Latin vegetus, meaning whole, sound, fresh and lively! Vegetarians do not eat any animals including cows, sheeps, pigs, chickens, fish and crustaceans such as shrimps. Vegetarians also do not eat any animal by-products such as gelatine and lard. Many vegetarians will not eat eggs either.

What is a vegan?
The word ‘vegan' (pronounced VEE-gan) comes from the first three and last two letters of the word vegetarian. A vegan does not eat, wear or use anything that derives from animals. This includes all meats, eggs, dairy products, honey, fur, silk, leather and wool, along with any products containing animal-derived ingredients.
