However, he could be including protozoons among "stuff like that". They are more akin to animals, but, apart from parasites,[1] they don't have much impact on our diet compared to yeasts and bacteria.
[1] with parasites, it is more our diet having an impact on us, really.
But I think their evolution is long way away from animals or plants.
Mushrooms are not vegetables either.
Fungi....
Mrs T mistook her cabinet for vegetables.
Why? No meat products in Marmite, unless you consider yeast a living organism.
Of course it is.
Plants are living organisms.
If a vege has worms, who is eating who?
You sure they have worms on Vega?
No, as I said. But I am presuming that vegetarians want to avoid eating animals rather than specifically confine their diet to vegetables. Otherwise they wouldn't eat eggs and milk. I believe vegans are happy to eat fungi too. Even those who won't eat honey.
As is indeed any Brassica species. I expect he meant it wasn't an animal, even a unicellular one.
Frankly what veggies will and wont eat is getting seriously boring.
I'll stick to not eating marmite.

It's always been seriously boring. Even worse is the assumption by some that being a veggie fusspot is somehow morally superior.
