Aren't
vegetarians being hypocritical because they still wear leather or exploit cows
for their milk?
There is a very valid argument for becoming vegan - for giving up all dairy products, eggs and any other animal by-products. But realistically speaking, few people can go from being a meat eater to a vegan overnight. Vegetarianism is a very important halfway house. And even if you never go on to being vegan, you've already made an impact and saved the lives of many animals simply by giving up meat. Far from being hypocritical, you're making an effort to change the way you live for the better. How far you go with vegetarianism is up to you, but however small the step you take, it's not wasted. And don't feel that you have to become a perfect vegetarian overnight. If you forget to check the ingredients list and realise that you've just eaten something containing gelatine, don't feel that you've failed. Take it one step at a time and enjoy learning more about the vegetarian lifestyle. The important thing is that you're doing something!

Shopping for vegetarian food should be easy but do you understand everything that's on the label? What do all those numbers mean? Are they OK for a vegetarian? Look for the Society's V-Symbol. It marks products which we have tested and know are suitable for vegetarians.
