Aw, cute pic. I think that even vegetarians eat meat because they need the protein. I know my dogs will eat grass, bananas and other vegetables.
I think most dogs eat grass, but my dog has taken a liking to apples and carrots after watching my horse eat them…
Dogs and wolves often eat vegetable matter, it is grains that they do not eat. Raw sweet potatoe, turnips, melons and such are actually good at helping to clean teeth.
As for vegetarians it depends on what type they are, there are 3 different ones I believe, but could very well be wrong. One type will eat eggs and milk, and veggies. And the most extreem true vegan will eat nothing that is a by-product of animals, eggs, milk fat nothing.
I often wonder if any of them eat Jello?
That-s probably why Vegans wouldn-t touch it. They-re as bad as the Hindus – revere cows so much they won-t even use the useless parts.
I remember the difference the mid range vegan type will eat fish, for some reason they do not consider it meat.
I didn’t know that Jello was made from cows hooves. Some of the things I learn on here I could just do without!! 😆
I have a cat that likes baked items: cookies, pie crust, cake, bread, pizza crust, etc. She won’t eat canned cat food or treats though. She eats the hard crunchy cat food, and if you give her a small piece of turkey meat or a little corner of cheese, she might eat it. But cookies she’ll always eat.

I didn’t know that either. I always thought Jello was made from agar agar, which is derived from seaweed.
According to this article, gelatin is also derived from animal bones and connective tissue. And the article lists a lot of stuff that contains gelatin…like gummy bears, marshmallows, and cake frostings. I wonder if the vegetarians know about that? I always put gelatin in whipped cream to stabilize it if I’m going to frost a cake with it…

Posting my reply from another thread as an answer.

True vegetarians don’t eat meat, and meat includes fish (I’m very familiar with this, I’ve been a vegetarian for 11 years). The only variety within vegetarians (besides Vegans) are the difference between Lacto-ovo or Ovo Vegetarians (in which eating eggs is ok) and Lacto Vegetarians (who will not eat eggs or foods with eggs in the ingrediants). All of them aggree fish is a meat.
I try to nix these fallacies on Vegetrians before people assume them fact. Sorry that it makes the thread more educational than fun. Vegans are strict Vegetarians and do not eat fish. If you see a Vegan eating fish, they aren’t a Vegan, not even a Vegetarian. They just might like to call themselves that so they can justify wearing Birkenstocks 🙂 (sorry, a little insider joke 😳 )
As for gelatin, I don’t know about it being made out of horse’s hooves. I do know that part of it forms from boiling animal skin and bones so Vegans won’t eat it (I’m a Vegetarian and I don’t eat it either).
