Just for clarity, veganism is always a choice, as it's a moral position, not a diet. If you have an allergy to meat, that wouldn't prevent you from using other nonfood animal products, so you wouldn't necessarily be vegan.

The term for someone who only follows a vegan diet, but not by choice, would be "plant based".

The vegan place to discuss things.

Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.
