  Veganism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Veganism is a lifestyle characterized by abstaining from the use or ingestion of animal products, and by avoiding the use of products that have been tested on animals.
Since 1944 the term veganism has been expanded to mean people who (primarily for what they see as ethical or environmental reasons) seek to eliminate all animal products in all areas of their lives from those who simply avoid eating animal products.
Another recent variation of veganism is the "freegan" diet (practitioners sometimes called "opportunivores"), which essentially allows its practitioners to violate the tenets of veganism when a food item is free or of a post-consumer nature (example: discarded food).
