New Vegetarian - Light Morning

This morning: Oatmeal and Tea


I learned something last night!





On http://www.americanheart.org/ "Vegetarian Diets"





What is a vegetarian diet?
Some people follow a "vegetarian" diet, but there's no single vegetarian eating pattern. The vegan or total vegetarian diet includes only foods from plants: fruits, vegetables, legumes (dried beans and peas), grains, seeds and nuts. The lactovegetarian diet includes plant foods plus cheese and other dairy products. The ovo-lactovegetarian (or lacto-ovovegetarian) diet also includes eggs. Semi-vegetarians don't eat red meat but include chicken and fish with plant foods, dairy products and eggs






So, it looks like, I am a ovo-lactoVegetarian by these guide lines. I don't eat any meat but still have cheese, milk, and eggs.
