Explanation:
- A vegetarian diet excludes all meat but does allow the consumption of animals products (milk, cheese, etc.)
- A macrobiotic diet is "a philosophically oriented program . . . emphasizing harmony with nature, esp. through adherence to a diet consisting primarily of whole grains, beans, vegetables, and moderate amounts of seafood and fruit". (dictionary.com - Random House)
- A vegan diet does not allow the consumption or even the use of any animal products (for example, vegans will not wear leather).
