Vegetarians Eat What?
In the United States , vegetarianism is usually synonymous with ovo-lacto vegetarianism; and will sometimes be assumed to tolerate some meat, for instance, chicken (or “at least” fish). It is also possible to order a vegetarian meal and be served meat. One beneficial cause I attribute to vegetarianism is that it does have an eventual effect on the meat market, because the less there is a demand for meat, the less it will be produced. But when it is already cooked and laid out for you. Vegetarianism is the practice of eating a diet consisting mainly or entirely of food that comes from plant sources such as fruits and vegetables. Vegetarian diets vary widely. If “meat is murder,” then vegetarianism is genocide.
Vegetarianism isn’t quite so hard as veganism, and it’s very good for your health. Give it a try! Vegetarianism is a very important halfway house. And even if you never go on to being vegan, you’ve already made an impact and saved the lives of many animals simply by giving up meat. In the Global North, vegetarianism is the prerogative of the middle class.
