> though ‘vegetarian’ can include eggs, fish, and sometimes chicken depending on the person, time, etc.

What is the purpose of the word vegetarian if one uses it to mean consuming some animals but not others?

Vegan = no animals used to make food

Vegetarian = no animals consumed

Ovo lacto vegetarian = vegetarian that eats eggs and dairy (I guess additional clarifiers in case someone thinks vegetarian does not include eggs or dairy)

Pescatarian = fish + some flavor of vegetatian/vegan

Omnivore = eats everything

Carnivore = only eats animals
