Vegetarian

Here is the follow up article on the newly released advertisement of Alicia Silverstone regarding being a vegetarian. So now I’ll discuss the different types of vegetarians. According to what food they eat and avoid.

Vegan

They only eat vegetables, legumes, and fruits. And they also don’t use products made from animals, like leather in your shoes or bags. They don’t buy or use any products that are tested on animals, because they feel that this act is a form of abusing animal rights

Lacto Ovo Vegetarian

This type of vegetarian doesn’t eat poultry, meat, fish but they do eat eggs and dairy products.

Fruitarian

A fruitarian is a person who only eats fruits and vegetables that are actually classified as fruits such as avocados, nuts, seeds, eggplant, zucchini and tomatoes.

Macrobiotics

A macrobiotic diet is mainly vegetarian, but macrobiotic diets often include seafood. In this diet all other meat products are excluded, as are eggs and dairy products. They also do not eat "nightshade vegetables" (potato, pepper and eggplant)
