Whats the Difference Between a Vegan and a Vegetarian?

Whats the Difference Between a Vegan and a Vegetarian?
Neither vegetarians nor vegans eat any meat or slaughter bi-products. This means no beef, pork, poultry, deer meet, fish, shrimp, clams, etc. It also means no gelatin (Starbursts, marshmallows, Jr mints, gummy bears, many yogurts), rennet, lard, chicken fat (in soups and raman) beef fat (included in things like McDonald's fries and Hostess products.)

Some vegetarian refrain from using leather, ivory, tallow and other products that kill animals, but technically vegetarianism is a diet only.

Veganism is not just a diet but, by definition, a whole lifestyle. It means using nothing made by animal - not just the above foods but also no dairy, eggs, honey, some refined sugars, no whey. It means not using leather, wool, bee's wax, or products tested on animals.

i think that a vegan is someone who doesn't eat ANYTHING that comes from an animal. and a vegetarian is someone who will eat/drink milk and fish and stuff like that

Vegetarians eat things produced by animals like eggs and milk. Vegans don't.
Vegans dont eat anything made from animals. vegitarians are more lenient
