2. (adj) A quality of food such that it is derived from no animal products (often reduced to <i>meatless</i> as <i>vegetarian (n)</i>)

1. "He's a vegetarian--he refuses to pay into a system that depends on killing animals."

2. "It's almost vegetarian! There's just a little milk."

No meat, no milk, no eggs. Often no honey. Like straightedge, but for animal products.

Kosher? Pshf, we like it straightveg!
