Different types of vegetarians!

If you are in India you are probably gonna find all type of vegetarians ever existed on the face of earth but yet you will find some that will blow your mind away. Being in India, believe me I have come across almost all of them, some are my relatives, some friends and some random people.

Types

1) Standard Vegetarians

These are the common group that almost everyone refers to when they mentioned the term "vegetarian". This include people consuming everything except egg, meats, fish etc.

2) Ovo-Vegetarian

This group includes people consuming all dairy products including eggs. It doesn't include meat and fish. These are people whom we also refer to as Eggetarians.

3) Demi-Vegetarian

This group includes people consuming all dairy products including eggs and fish. No meat.

4) Pollo-Vegetarian

This group includes people consuming all dairy products including eggs but excludes fish and other mammal meat.

5) Pesco-Vegetarian

This group includes people consuming all dairy products including eggs, fish. It also contains chicken but excludes red meat.

The list doesn't end here, some people call them vegetarian for excluding only fish and eating all other foods. Pretty crazy right!
If we go by the definitions, I am a Pesco-Vegetarian, I avoid red meat but I call myself a non-vegetarian. :)

Let me know what you think of the post.
