The vegan place to discuss things.

Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.

I don't consider people that consume gelatin or fish oil vegetarian and I'm not sure why this chart does. Maybe its creator meet too many of those people that consider fish a vegetable and say vegetarian when they mean pescatarian.

Yes, you make a good point as some people do not follow definitions. As some eat bugs and call themselves "entovegans"

Vegans do not eat animal products.

I don't think vegetarians generally eat gelatin. I didn't when I was just a vegetarian.

"plant-based - hunting (fishing included)"??? while i'm not going to be so bold as to claim there is not one person in the world who doesn't eat meat but does sport hunt, it's difficult for me to imagine that's very common lol
