UNDERSTANDING VEGANISM

When you want to know what Veganism means, our rst recomendation
is to consult the Wikipedia's denition; yes, Wikipedia provides one of the simplest
denition of Veganism:
'Veganism is both the practice of abstaining from the use of animal products, particulary in diet,
and an associated philosophy that rejects the commodity status of animals. A follower of either the
diet or the philosophy is known as a vegan.'
It means that a vegan do not eat any tipe of animal products, and do not accept any use of
animals as property or objects of trade.
A more explicit denition is one as the provided by the Vegan Society.

'Veganism is about neither using nor abusing
non-humans, who all have a right to life and
freedom. These animals cannot consent to
being raised for milk and meat whatever
conditions we keep them in: farming them is
always an abuse of power.'
