There are many vegan only associations and websites. Is there any such thing as a lacto/ovo ONLY vegetarian association or website?
Try looking for ovo-lacto vegetarian. When I was growing up, that’s what we were called. Not lacto ovo, which does not roll off the tongue. There are quite a few sites for us out there. And ovo-lacto or lacto ovo is not a redundant statement. Most vegetarians that I know do not eat dairy. I don’t drink milk but could if I wanted to, it’s just that the government allows milk to come from diseased cows. So I don’t want it.

There’s no need to say lacto/ovo vegetarian, that’s redundant. If you said vegetarian it would already be assumed that you’re using dairy and eggs.

I’ve been vegetarian for.. 18 years (had to think about it). I typically only hear the lacto ovo lingo when someone who eats chicken or fish wants to talk about how vegetarian they are.
I think it’s redundant in the textbook definition of vegetarian.. But can be used to contrast between vegan and vegetarian. I understand the importance.. Some say milk and eggs are more cruel than meat. I keep it simple. There’s already a lot of confusion even with the 2 veg*n labels.
I stopped going with a label awhile ago, unless I really need it.. Now I just tell ppl I don’t feel like eating meat. My own Spy Game.

I love the idea about just telling people you don’t feel like eating meat – brilliant! It really makes it simple… thanks for sharing it!
I think this is among the most vital information for me. And i’m glad reading your article. But want to remark on some general things, The website style is wonderful, the articles is really nice : D. Good job, cheers
