Vegan

Nice topic. I’m a vegetarian. But I wanted to be vegan. It’s really hard to be vegan in Turkey. Every foods are making with meat or cheese or milk anyway. Also Vegan foods are really expensive. If I can earn money in future I’ll be vegan :)

Good article! Thank you. I am vegeterian, it is not so difficult how can seems. I stopped to eat meat when watched film about killing of animals (“eathlings”), it is so hurt! I cried (but I never cry over movies). I hope that in the future most of people will become by vegeterians because it really brings peace

In Polish vegetarian is wegetarianin and vegan is weganin

I am not vegan but I think it's the beautiful think. I hope I will become vegan in a future day.

hello, everybody. it's a big toopic. i think that we shouldn't shame on smbd. for vegetarian he or not, because we are different . and for my country it's impossible to live without meet!!! it's our tradition. but generally i support vegeterians, because their bodies are more healthy)))

what about GMO vegetables and cereals! how many food can we save by limiting meat consumption! why you want have cheap meat? Animals should be raised respectfully for their noble meat.Instead of treating them like our creation! I beg you don’t know the real taste of real natural meat.

Studies says that eating too much meat causes cancer, and other health problems.

i've been a vegan since three years, and i'm really happy with it!

In polish:

vegetarian – wegetarianin (male), wegetarianka (female)

vegan – weganin 

As I understand it, "Vegan" is a word that was created by a group of people in the UK around 1944.  The people felt that the meaning of the word "vegetarian" had become too confusing, and they wanted a word that conveyed their commitment to a dairy-free lifestyle.  They took the word from the word VEGetariAN, because they believed that "vegetarian" truly begins and ends with "vegan." That is why the one word is shorter than the other. 

 Thanks to everyone who has been responding to this! It's fun to get feedback from all over the world!  (And a special thank you to everyone who is doing their part to end the abuse of animals!)

well, I was a vegetarian once, but it was really difficult giving up meat and specially dairy products. I don't know if I can do it anymore, even to save the planet…

Vegan – A diet that excludes all meat, fish and dairy products as well as any food derived from a living animal such as eggs. Their diet relies on beans, lentils, nuts, seeds and soya products for protein, grains and starchy vegetables for carbohydrate and nuts and seeds and oils for fat.

Vegetarian – There are two types of vegetarianism: lacto-ovo vegetarians who exclude red meat, poultry and fish and lacto-vegetarians who exclude red meat, poultry, fish and eggs.

why is the shorter version bigger then the longer version of the word?

When I was 15 I saw one video..how cows and bigs are killed for meat…It was so terrible, the were crying!!! With real TEARS!!!! It was so much pain and suffering there that I couldn't sleep that night… And from that day I understood that we mustn't eat animals…They look like us, they are our friends…We must love and protect them, coz they love and trust us.. And people..kill them in so terrible way!!!!!!!!!!! Look at these: do you think it is normal??? Do you really feel that it is normal?  http://www.ruki.org.ua/ruki/foto.htm
