In this link, in this context, VEGANISM refers to the DIET part of the VEGANISM, which is known as a PLANT BASED DIET as well as a CRUELTY FREE Diet
since VEGANISM is an ETHICAL, SPIRITUAL movement and Not Only a diet but a compassionate, cruelty free lifestyle.
We have chosen the term VEGANISM to represent the ANCIENT PLANT BASED EATING only to highlight the illusion that VEGANISM is something New, which is not, when we refer to its DIETARY component of NON animal foods.
Most, if not ALL of our reality is based on lies and deceptions
Our history books and all other educational main stream sources are based on half truths at best
When it comes to FOOD, there is no exception.

Plant based diets in ancient times were AS popular as Today...
Veganism and plant based diets are not a trend nor fading movement

Middle East plant based influencers
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veganism
One
of the earliest known vegans was the Arab poet al-Maʿarri (c. 973 –
c. 1057).[55][b] Their arguments were based on health, the transmigration of souls,
animal welfare, and the view—espoused by Porphyry in De Abstinentia ab Esu
Animalium ("On Abstinence from Animal Food", c. 268 – c. 270)—that if
humans deserve justice, then so do animals.[50]
JAPANESE people
Was
Japan ever vegetarian?
In
675, the use of livestock and the consumption of some wild animals (horse,
cattle, dogs, monkeys, birds) was banned in Japan by Emperor Tenmu, due to the
influence of Buddhism.[63] Subsequently, in the year 737 of the Nara period,
the Emperor Seimu approved the eating of fish and shellfish. During the twelve
hundred years from the Nara period to the Meiji Restoration in the latter half
of the 19th century, Japanese people enjoyed vegetarian-style meals. They
usually ate rice as a staple food as well as beans and vegetables. It was only
on special occasions or celebrations that fish was served. Over this period,
the Japanese people (particularly Buddhist monks) developed a vegetarian
cuisine called shōjin-ryōri which was native to Japan. ryōri means cooking or
cuisine, while shojin is a Japanese translation of virya in Sanskrit, meaning
"to have the goodness and keep away evils".[64]
In
1872 of the Meiji restoration,[65] as part of the opening up of Japan to
Western influence, Emperor Meiji lifted the ban on the consumption of red
meat.[66] The removal of the ban encountered resistance and in one notable
response, ten monks attempted to break into the Imperial Palace. The monks
asserted that due to foreign influence, large numbers of Japanese had begun
eating meat and that this was "destroying the soul of the Japanese
people." Several of the monks were killed during the break-in attempt, and
the remainder were arrested.[65][67]

Jamaican/Rastafarian people
Vegan
food is booming in coastal cities, but the same can’t be said for other parts
of the country. And that’s a problem. While eating a plant-based diet is often
presented as a White, millennial fad that accompanies gentrification, the ital
foodways practiced by Caribbean Rastafarians remind us that Black people have a
long and rich tradition of plant-based eating.

African people
There’s
a passage in Jenné Claiborne’s 2018 cookbook Sweet Potato Soul that beautifully
captures the historical thread of plant-based eating in Black culture: When
Claiborne was asked by friends if it’s difficult to be a vegan from Atlanta,
she reminded them that “my great-grandparents from the South — and my ancestors
from West Africa — ate mostly plant-based diets.”
Bryant
Terry addresses this — along with the misconception that plant-based eating
started with white hipsters, wealthy Goopsters, and animal-rights activists —
in Afro-Vegan, where he writes that “for thousands of years, traditional West
and Central African diets were predominantly vegetarian — centered around
staple foods like millet, rice, field peas, okra, hot peppers, and yams.”
Before captivity, as documented in detail in the culinary historian Michael
Twitty’s searching volume on African-American foodways, The Cooking Gene, the
West African communities of the Igbo and Mande cooked largely with grains,
legumes, leafy greens, herbs, and onions.

Europe During the Renaissance
Was
Leonardo da Vinci a vegetarian? Some evidence suggests he was.
When
it comes to vegan-friendly cultures in history, we don’t often think of Europe.
However, once the European Renaissance started in the 14th century, everything
changed.
The
European Renaissance reignited a content-wide interest in education, science,
and philosophy.
Much
of this revitalization came through contact with the east that sparked new
interest in ancient Greek and Roman culture.
This
led some famous figures, including Leonardo da Vinci, to adopt the “Pythagorean
diet” of vegetarianism. (Note: Some claims about da Vinci’s meat-free diet have
been disputed, however.)
In
any case, this cultural moment had profound impacts on European attitudes
towards animals.
By
the end of the 18th century, Europeans commonly supported the idea that animals
weren’t just made for human use and deserved their own care.

HUMAN OMNIVORISM debunked
http://agnvegglobal.blogspot.com/2012/01/human-omnivorism-debunked.html
Veganism: "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 humans, animals and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the
practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from
animals." - The Vegan Society
