To my understanding, Vegans don't eat any animal products at all. Strictly
vegetables and grains. No butter, no nothing that has anything to do with
animals including butter or milk from cows or goats. Strict Vegans also
won't eat honey although I have no idea what this has to do with "animal"
products since bees aren't animals. Vegetarians are more moderate, using
dairy products including cheese, butter but won't eat meat, fish or poultry.
