Vegan in context
There is an ongoing fad for becoming vegans in developed countries.
Vegetarians and vegans both avoid eating meat, but their dietary practices and lifestyle commitments differ. Vegetarians exclude meat from their diet but may still consume other animal-derived products such as dairy, eggs, and honey. Their primary focus is on eliminating direct consumption of animal flesh. On the other hand, vegans adhere to a more comprehensive lifestyle choice that excludes all animal products, including dairy, eggs, and even non-food items like leather and wool. Veganism extends beyond diet to avoid any form of animal exploitation, making it a broader ethical commitment compared to vegetarianism.
