| A
few steps to help get the most from your visit: |
| 1.
All our lists have three columns beside them that tell you if
the item is OK for your diet. |
| 2.
You need to decide which of the categories shown below best describes
your diet: |
| |
|
|
| a)
No meat or fish (inc by-products e.g. gelatine)
but eat eggs and dairy:
lacto-ovo-vegetarian -
on our lists as:
Eggy |
|
This is the assumed norm when
'suitable for vegetarians' is found on food labels |
| |
|
b)
No meat, fish (inc by-products e.g. gelatine) or eggs,
but eat dairy: lacto-vegetarian-
on our lists as:
Veggie |
|
Although reasons vary, normally
concerns about
welfare of birds when eggs are
mass-produced in
factory farms. For more info see this wikipedia.org page:
Ethical Issues. |
| |
| c)
No animal products: vegan
-
on our lists as:
Vegan |
|
'is a person who
avoids the ingestion or use of animal
products. An animal product in this context refers to the body parts
of an animal or any substance derived from an animal.'
