I want to talk to you today about the different types of vegetarians. You never know, some of your friends might fall into one of these categories.
Type | Red Meat | Foul (birds) | Seafood | Eggs | Dairy(milk, cheese, etc) | Animal products (honey, etc) |
Semi- Vegetarian | USUALLY NO | MAYBE | MAYBE | YES | YES | YES |
Lacto-Ovo Vegetarian | NO | NO | NO | YES | YES | YES |
Ovo Vegetarian | NO | NO | NO | YES | NO | YES |
Lacto Vegetarian | NO | NO | NO | NO | YES | YES |
Vegan | NO | NO | NO | NO | NO | NO |
Then we have the other category:
- Su Vegetarians – They are like vegans but they will not eat any vegetable/fruit that will kill a plant (onion, garlic, potatoes, etc)
- Fruitarians – Anything that can be eaten without hurting a plant and no animal products are allowed (fruit, nuts, seeds, etc)
- Macrobiotic Vegetarians – Mostly whole grains and beans but some do eat some fish
- Raw vegetarians – Raw fruits/vegetables/nuts/seeds and no animal products
- Flexitarians – They eat vegetarian when they feel like it (these are the not so committed folks)
Message:
-There are many different Vegetarians
-I'm a Lacto-ovo Vegetarian but I try to write for all vegetarians.

Lacto Vege here! :)
Ever thought about being a Lacto-ovo vegetarian? Do you find it hard to be a Lacto Vegetarian?
I used to be a Lacto-ovo vegetarian, but I decided to cut eggs out of my diet. The only thing that is hard about it is having to check "vegetarian" meals for eggs. You'll find A LOT of vegetarian meat alternatives have egg in them. And of course most bakery items, and some ice creams. When baking, I substitute eggs for the same volume of vanilla yogurt. That makes for THE MOST moist cakes ever. Try it.
