Vegetarian restaurants in the West Island

A diet that is vegetarian will generally be free of meat and products that contain animal tissue. There are several different types of vegetarian diets, each with their own group of devoted followers. The most popular type is lacto-ovo vegetarians who allow themselves to have eggs, milk and some type of sea foods.

Among the most strict branches of vegetarianism are the vegans. People practicing this diet will purge themselves of all animal products, including leather and whey (whey can be found in many foods that do not contain meat and is very hard to avoid). Vegetarians have found many alternatives to meat in order to get the protein and nutrition that meat provides. Some of the most popular foods are tofu, textured vegetable protein, mean analogues and substitutes for egg and dairy products which are most often made of soy. Vegetarianism has become a world-wide phenomena among all generations.
