How are vegetarians divided?!
How are vegetarians divided?
the only thing i know is pisco- vegetarian (eat seafood)
any others?
Answers:
-Lacto-vegetarians eat dairy and not eggs
-Ovo-Vegetarians eat eggs, but no dairy
-Lacto-ovo Vegetarians eat both dairy and eggs
-Pescatarians eat fish (relatively new term - also "Semi" demi" "or pesce-vegetarians")
-Pollo-vegetarians eat chicken ("pollotarian")
-Pesce-pollotarians (or chickifishitarian) eat chicken and fish
-Flexitarians mostly maintain a vegetarian diet, although occasionally eat meat (thus the "flex", new term as well)
-Vegans don't eat dairy or anything animal-derived (including Jell-O and Marshmallows, which contains "Gelatin")
-Raw Vegans eat only raw foods (uncooked & unprocessed), such as fruits, nuts, & vegetables
Also, read about Macrobiotic.
To those who say I'm making **** up... How do you think words and terms are coined? They're made up, in this case, not by me. Google the terms, open your mind, and learn something new.

i didnt even know they were divided
Pesco-vegetarians eat fish
Lacto-vegetarians eat dairy
Mostly by income & education levels! I like the way X explained it. I have never heard of a Flexitarian. I learned a new word. Thanks!
There is no such thing as a fish eating vegetarian! Vegetarians eat no animals whether they exist in sea, air or on land.
The ONLY legitimate types of vegetarian are:
Lacto-ovo vegetarian, the least strict they eat no dead animals of any kind but do use milk and eggs since those don't directly result in the death of the animal.
Lacto vegetarian: same as above but no egg.
Ovo vegetarian: skip the milk.
Pure vegetarians; *eat* no animals or animal based products but use animal based products like leather or wool. (this is the ONLY unofficial vegetarian class)
Vegans; same as 'pure' but use no animal products.
There is no such thing as a pisco-vegetarian. It's a complete oxymoron. No type of vegetarian eats fish.
