World Vegan Month kicks off the holiday season, and encourages people to go vegan. What is the difference between vegetarians and vegans? There are quite a few. The Vegan Society first began as an offshoot of The Vegetarian Society in November 1944, when Donald Watson, Elsie Shrigley and friends felt the important need to distinguish the difference between not eating meat, and not consuming any products derived from animals. We began celebrating the founding of The Vegan Society in 1994 and every year since, November 1st has been marked as World Vegan Day, with its significance growing to be internationally recognized.
In a natural progression, World Vegan Day evolved into World Vegan Week and now, what we celebrate as World Vegan Month; where vegans and veganism is celebrated in workplaces, shops, restaurants and in homes all over the world.
What does it mean to go vegan? Vegan is not vegetarian, which simply means you do not eat meat. Vegans refrain from eating, using or enjoying any of the following:
1) No Meat, dairy, fish, or eggs.
2) No clothing made from animals including leather, fur, wool, or silk.
3) No products tested on animals.
4) No attending or watching entertainment that uses animals including film, TV, circuses, zoos, rodeos, hunting, and wild animal parks.
