Plant-based Foods
Vegan VEGETARIAN
Whole-Food Diet Frugivore Raw Vegan
What do all these terms, labels and boxes even mean? Are they really that different or is this just another way people try to differentiate themselves? I don’t think that this is a real religion but is it a cult? If I buy vegetables from Whole Foods Supermarket, am I a Whole Food Vegan now? And what on Earth is a frugivore? Sounds like this is all made up- is it?? These are just some of the questions I get asked almost every day. Let me just start out by saying that these are not religions and by no means that they are cults. Although people take their food intake very seriously and somewhat religiously.
I’ll explain to the best of my knowledge what all these terms mean but make no mistake, there are dozens of other terms that people use to describe their food intake and all sorts of reasons as to why. Let me start with my personal dietary intake and my reason(s) for eating the way that I do.
