    Vegan is a philosophy, not a diet. The word you’re looking for is plant-based, not vegan.

    A vegan wouldn’t buy leather shoes or woolen sweaters. Someone on a plant-based diet would.

      Sure, but the average person does not know or care about the distinction. It’s much easier to explain this way. I’ll see if I can incorporate this terminology instead next time though
