​Vegetarian & Salads
VEGETARIAN
The Vegetarian Society defines a vegetarian as: "Someone who lives on a diet of grains, pulses, nuts, seeds, vegetables and fruits with, or without, the use of dairy products and eggs. A vegetarian does not eat any meat, poultry, game, fish, shellfish* or by-products of slaughter."
There are different types of vegetarian:
-
Lacto-ovo-vegetarians eat both dairy products and eggs; this is the most common type of vegetarian diet.
-
Lacto-vegetarians eat dairy products but avoid eggs.
-
Ovo-vegetarian. Eats eggs but not dairy products.
-
Vegans do not eat dairy products, eggs, or any other products which are derived from animals.
Eggs: Many lacto-ovo vegetarians will only eat free-range eggs. This is because of welfare objections to the intensive farming of hens. Through its Vegetarian Society Approved trade mark, the Vegetarian Society only endorses products containing free-range eggs.
