What is a Vegetarian?

Eater of fruits and grains and nuts; someone who eats no meat or fish or (often) any animal products.

What is a Vegan?

A vegetarian who eats plant products only, especially one who uses no products derived from animals, as fur or leather.

Books on the subject: The Vision of Eden: Animal Welfare and Vegetarianism in Jewish Law and Mysticism (Hardcover).

What can be eaten

  • There are some kosher insects that are types of grasshopper or locust. Ashkenazi and most Sepharadi groups have lost the tradition of which exact species are kosher, but Yemenites and some Sepharadi groups have maintained this tradition and can properly identify them (though to most people the prospect of eating insects is not appealing, rendering this a largely academic point).
  • There are some restrictions on plants, like they need to be checked that there are no insects. Any beverages made from grapes including grape juice and wine require special processing and supervision to be kosher.
