@thatbrickster Huh, that seems to be quite a difference. I mean, why specifically vegan instead of vegetarian?
@thatbrickster Oh? I must've missed the development here, since I'm not really following this up close. So what's that interpretation like now?
@thatbrickster Aha. Alright, thanks for the clarification. So I probably can expect to see 'vegan' more often now, where I'd have expected 'vegetarian'?
@thatbrickster So, would it also apply to stuff like uh.. lipsticks with that definition? It sounds kind of weird to label something that you can't eat 'vegan', is that term that widely used?
@thatbrickster Thanks! Learning something here. Going to read the sites.
I am probably what one would call a 'flexitarian', I've read about that term before. There are days that I don't eat meat (though I cannot guarantee it is vegan), and days where I do eat meat.
A fair amount of my friends are vegetarian. I am not sure if there are vegans among them.
The main thing is you have your own reasons for doing it. I can't stand when it's unironically forced on people like a shame tactic.
Both organisations in the UK have detailed definitions.
