I kēia mau lā, hoʻonui mākou i nā huaʻōlelo e like me ka meaʻai meaʻai, meaʻai maka, fruitarian, vegan, lacto vegetarian, a me nā mea ʻē aʻe. E ʻike kākou pehea ka ʻokoʻa o nā ʻōnaehana kaulana ʻelua, ʻo ia ka veganism versus vegetarianism. ʻO ka Vegetarianism kahi manaʻo koʻikoʻi no ka meaʻai mea kanu e kāpae i nā mea āpau a i ʻole kekahi hapa o nā huahana holoholona. A ʻo ka veganism kekahi ʻano o kēia meaʻai. I kekahi manawa, ma kahi o kēia huaʻōlelo, hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i kahi mea e like me ka vegetarianism koʻikoʻi.
ʻO nā ʻano nui o ka vegetarianism: No laila, e pane i ka nīnau "pehea ka ʻokoʻa o ka vegan mai ka mea ʻai?", Pono wale mākou e wehewehe i kahi vegan.
ʻO ka ʻokoʻa nui, ʻo ka ʻai ʻana o ka mea ʻai meaʻai koʻikoʻi e haʻalele i nā ʻano ʻiʻo āpau a me nā huahana āpau i loaʻa ma o ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā holoholona, ʻo ia hoʻi nā huahana dairy, nā hua a me ka meli. Eia nō naʻe, ʻo ka vegan kekahi mea i hoʻololi ʻaʻole wale i kā lākou meaʻai, akā i ko lākou nohona. ʻAʻole loa ʻoe e ʻike i ka ʻili, ka hulu hipa, ka lole suede a i ʻole nā lole silika i loko o nā ʻaʻahu vegan maoli. ʻAʻole ʻo ia e hoʻohana i nā mea hoʻonaninani a i ʻole nā mea hoʻomaʻemaʻe i hoʻāʻo ʻia i nā holoholona. ʻAʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hālāwai me kahi vegan i kahi circus, aquariums, zoos, hale kūʻai holoholona. ʻAʻole makemake nui ka nohona vegan i ka leʻaleʻa e like me ka rodeos a i ʻole ka moa, ʻaʻole i ka hahai holoholona a i ʻole ka lawaiʻa. Hoʻonui ka vegan i kona ola, nā pilikia o ka haumia o ke kaiapuni, ka hoʻopau ʻana i nā kumuwaiwai kūlohelohe, ka pono o nā holoholona, a me nā mea ʻē aʻe. ʻOiaʻiʻo, pono ʻoe e ʻike maopopo i ka mea a me ke kumu a mākou e hana nei, akā mai pili i nā wehewehe. ʻAʻole pono mākou e poina ʻo ka mea mua he poʻe wale nō mākou, a laila wale nō nā mea kanu, vegans, etc.
