Vegetarianism is a code of conduct. It is necessary to abstain from eating animal products such as meat, poultry, fish and eggs for life, and sometimes to abstain from eating dairy products and honey. The reasons for following vegetarianism are usually health reasons, or out of love for animals and respect for animal rights.

In other aspects, vegetarians generally try to avoid harming animals directly or indirectly, including not using products from animals, such as bezoar, tiger bone, bear bile, ivory, mink oil, musk, fish oil, chicken essence, donkey-hide gelatin and so on. Nor do they engage in slaughter, non-vegetarian catering, aquaculture, fishing and other occupations related to killing.

Of course, according to Buddhist scriptures, this should actually include garlic, cardamom, cinnamon, pepper, cloves, onions and other spices.

The original meaning of Chinese "element" means white and simple. According to textual research, vegetarianism has three meanings in ancient Chinese. The first one refers to eating vegetables. For example, there is an example of vegetarianism in "KuangMuZhengSu", that is, there is no wine and meat, only fruit and vegetable bait. The second kind refers to eating fruits and vegetables raw. The third refers to eating and drinking for nothing. In addition, the words with vegetarian meaning in ancient Chinese also include "vegetable food". For example, there is a saying in Zhuangzi Nanhuajing: "If you eat vegetables, you can swim, but if you don't tie a boat, you can swim".

In addition, the words "vegetarian", "vegetarian" and "vegetarian" generally refer to vegetarian food.
