I think vegans are completely against any meat because they think it's unhealthy, and vegetarians think it's immoral.
I just think it's tasty.
Vegans are the ones that think it's immoral. It's like the joke goes, how can you tell if someone is vegan, because they will tell you.
Vegetarian is just a dietary preference.
Vegetarianism can be on an ethical basis too.
Vegans eat no animal products, vegetarians drink milk and eat eggs. The reasoning for their choice doesn't define the terms.
Either can be either.
Vegans have more to do with morals than vegetarians. Vegans may refrain from using animal based products like leather, which can be completely unrelated to health. A vegetarian diet is just that, a diet without meat. Can be for health or moral reasons, unspecified.
Many things are tasty, many of which don't have the detrimental implications of animal products, especially meat.
