    Only a couple of years back, the French tried to pass off fish and seafood as vegetarian. It nicely illustrates how much acceptance and understanding veganism can get.

      French has several (as others I guess) distinctions, like do you yeat fish, do you eat cheese, do you have a leather belt etc.

      One is “rarely eat meat” (flexitarien).

      So I guess it’s just more nuanced / less black/white.

        Perhaps, but this was an international event held in English, and the food was specifically for people who indicated they are vegetarian beforehand.
