Question
is Egg considered to be veggetarian?
Is there anything like 'artificial egg' ?

Answer
No, if you were to consider being a vegan, eating eggs would not be vegetarian.  However there are many types of vegetarian.  A vegan does not eat dairy, eggs, cheese, honey or anything that comes from something that has a face.  However there are vegatarians that eat eggs, dairy and honey and still consider themselves vegatarian.  Sorry for the late answer.  My Mom needed us and we had to travel a long distance and forgot to set myself on vacation.  If you have any other questions, please write.

Eating eggs is not Vegan.  People still can be vegetarian and eat eggs.  But they are not Vegan.  To be vegan is simply the exclusion of all animal products with a face as it is said.  This network is not a place where we argue who is right and who is wrong.  For years people who are vegetarians have argued this point.  Are you a vegetarian if you eat honey or eggs.  You are not Vegan but you still are a vegetarian.  This can be till the end of the earth question and no one will agree.  I only told you what I know to be true from years of being a vegetarian and being with a Vegetarian Society.  We have month pot luck dinners and you cannot bring in food with eggs, dairy, or honey out of respect for the Vegans.  Those are the rules they follow.  So, I would go with their rules since they almost govern what is vegetarian or vegan.
Hope this helps you at all.  I just don't think we are here to debate.  Just help people.
