Being vegan is a lifestyle choice that avoids all animal products in food, clothing, and other uses. While vegetarians may consume eggs and dairy, vegans do not consume or use anything from animals. There is a debate around whether veganism is a subdivision of vegetarianism or if true vegetarians are vegan. More people today prefer being vegan or vegetarian, but their motivations may be to follow contemporary fashion trends or for ethical and health reasons like protecting the environment and animals or weight loss.

1. Being a vegan or
a vegetarian – contemporary fashion?

2. What is “Vegan” ?
Being a vegan is definitely
more of a lifestyle choice and
a philosophy than a diet. A
vegan does not eat anything
that is of animal origin.
Vegans will not use animal
based products for clothing,
or any other purpose.

4. What is the difference between
Veganism and Vegetarianism?
Some people may disagree
with the meaning of
vegetarianism. The general
interpretation is that a vegan
will not consume any foods
of animal origin, not even
honey, while a vegetarian
might consume eggs or dairy
products.

5. Another general interpretation is that
Veganism is a subdivision of
Vegetarianism. However, some vegans
say that the only true vegetarian is a
vegan.

6. Contemporary fashion ?
Recently, more and more people prefer to be
Vegan or Vegetarian. Is this their own
decision or they do it only because they want
to be in vogue? Maybe most of them have
chosen to be Vegan because they want to
save the nature or to stop animals’ torture or
just to lose weight.
