DESCRIPTION:

World Vegan Month kicks off the holiday season by encouraging people to go vegan.

The Vegan Society organizes food festivals to convince people to cease eating meat and using animal products by embracing the vegan lifestyle. Vegans believe their lifestyle is better for human health, animals, and the environment.

VEGAN VERSUS VEGETARIAN


Many people who claim to be vegan are just strict vegetarians. Knowing the difference between the two is crucial, particularly if you're dating an avowed vegan or entertaining vegans as guests.


WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO "GO VEGAN?"


Vegan is an ultra-austere form of vegetarianism, requiring drastic lifestyle changes and staunch adherence. The idea began in 1944 with British woodworker Donald Watson (1911-2005), who coined the term "vegan," defined its parameters, and founded the Vegan Society.

Unlike vegetarianism, with its roots in ancient religions, veganism is agnostic and tied to the fringes of the animal rights movement.

Avowed vegans refrain from eating, using, working with, wearing, or enjoying human activities with animals. There is significant heavy lifting and abstinence if one wants to be vegan rather than vegetarian. Fortunately, veganism was created after internal combustion, so using transportation isn't forbidden.


GENERAL VEGAN GUIDELINES


1) No eating meat, poultry, game, dairy, fish, eggs, honey, gelatin, or aioli (mayonnaise).

2) No clothing, products, or home furnishings made from animals, including leather, fur, wool, ivory, bone, shells, or silk.

3) No products tested on animals; no services using animals, including transportation.

4) No attending, participating, or watching entertainment that uses animals, including film, television, circuses, aquariums, zoos, races, sports, rodeos, hunting, and wild animal parks.

5) No animal husbandry.
6) Most vegans, but not all, are antivaccine and anti-medication due to the necessity of testing new drugs and vaccines on animals first.

7) Extreme vegans reject having pets, though the pet issue is unsettled and debated in the community.


WHAT IS A VEGETARIAN?


In contrast, most vegetarians eat animal products like milk, cheese, yogurt, and eggs. The key is that vegetarians don't eat dead animals. Honey is a staple, often replacing sugar in recipes. Vegetarians will wear silk, wool, and leather, visit zoos, enjoy films with animals, and support humane farming and ranching. Vegetarians, as a group, do not have issues with medication, and many happily have pets.

Pescatarians are a hybrid between omnivores (most global humans who eat plant and animal-based diets) and vegetarians. Pescatarians eat fish but do not eat beef, lamb, pork, game, or poultry.
