''For plant-eating, non-human animals, see Herbivore.
Vegetarianism is the practice of not eating meat, including beef, poultry, fish, and their by-products, products derived from animal carcasses, such as lard, tallow, gelatin, rennet and cochineal, with or without the use of dairy products or eggs. Some who follow the diet also choose to refrain from wearing clothing that involves the death of animals, such as leather, silk, fur and many down feathers. While most vegetarians consume dairy products, veganism is a stricter form which excludes dairy, eggs, honey, and any foods that contain these or other animal products. While the term vegetarianism, in a strict sense excludes all meat and fish, some partial-vegetarian diets use the term in their names, such as Pesco/pollo vegetarianism (excludes red meat but not chicken or fish).

How do you feel about the term “flexitarian," one who actively integrates meatless meals into his/her diet but isn’t a full-time vegetarian?
