Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A lacto-ovo vegetarian excludes meat and seafood from their diet but consumes dairy products and eggs. An ovo-vegetarian excludes meat and dairy but consumes eggs. A temporary vegetarian is not a commonly used term and does not describe a specific diet. Therefore, the best choice is B - a partial vegetarian, which refers to someone who excludes some types of meat (such as red meat) but occasionally consumes poultry, fish, and/or shellfish. A partial vegetarian is someone who excludes red meat from their diet but occasionally consumes poultry, fish, and shellfish. Lacto-ovo vegetarians exclude meat of all kinds but consume dairy products and eggs. Ovo-vegetarians exclude meat and dairy but consume eggs. Temporary vegetarians may exclude meat from their diet for a short period of time for various reasons but may not necessarily consume poultry, fish, and shellfish.
