In Vegetarian Times magazine, they have recipes with dairy products......is this al right for vegans to eat?Why is this in a vegetarian mag?
Vegetarians, as a whole, do not eat red meat. Some also choose to exclude poultry (pollo-veg) and/or seafood (pesco-veg). Because chicken and fish are indeed meat, it's debatable whether most would call it vegetarianism, but they are accepted forms.
Many veg's, in additon to actual flesh, eliminate non-meat animal products like gelatin and caesin. It varies a lot, though.
Drop all meat, but eat eggs and dairy, you're "lacto-ovo-vegetarian"
Drop all dairy products, and eat eggs, you're "ovo-vegetarian"
Drop eggs in all forms, but consume dairy, you're "lacto-vegetarian"
No eggs OR dairy, plus, no non-meat animal products, including honey, and you're, by definition, "vegan".
Go even further, and eat only plants and plant products (nothing grown with bacteria), and you're "macrobiotic" *please note, some macrobiotics DO eat meat. There's more to the philosophy than being non-meat-eaters. So, it's not technically a form of vegetarianism*
Vow not to cook your food, or do anything but pick and eat, and you're "raw-vegan", "raw-macrobiotic", or just "raw".
SO, to answer your question, there are, in fact, EIGHT forms af vegetarianism. (macro's don't count) pollo, pesco, pollo-pesco, ovo, lacto, lacto-ovo, vegan, and raw.

Vegetarians eat dairy products. Vegans eat no animal products or bi-products including honey and gelatin.Why is this in a vegetarian mag?
"vegetarians" can eat dairy, the stricter "vegans" exclude all dairy and eggs
There are many types of vegetarians, a pescatarian will eat fish, a lacto-ovo vegetarian means that they will eat eggs and dairy. There are about eight different types of vegetarians (I think) and only one type of vegan. A Vegan on the other hand will eat nothing that comes from an animal, to include honey. BTW, I love vegetarian Times also...great stuff in it!Why is this in a vegetarian mag?
Vegetarians eat dairy and eggs. Vegans eat no animal products or bi-products.
Vegetarians use dairy products such as milk, cheese, yogurt, and eggs.
However vegans don't. No meat, poulty, fish, eggs, dairy,
honey.I bought that magazine and many other
vegeterain magazines but now that I'm Vegan (2 months) doing some of the recipes are hard and you must substitute. Ive started doing my research and using Tofutti-for cream cheese, be careful to read labels on cheese because even if says soy doesn't mean it doesn't have casein (milk) in it. Vegan butter,
and soy milk as substitiute in recipes.
dairy would be for lacto vegetarians.
