Cultural Tip
In French‑speaking regions, "végétal(e)" is the preferred term for strictly vegan food, while "végétarien(ne)" often refers to a vegetarian diet that may still include dairy or eggs. Stating "entièrement végétale" signals a higher level of compliance with vegan standards, which is especially appreciated in health‑conscious or ethical dining contexts.
