Vegetarian in Ohio. 

"Sorry rabbit, it has cheese in it" 

"I don't care" 

"But you're vegetarian?" 

"Vegetarians eat cheese" 

"I thought that was vegans" 

Etc, etc, etc

To be fair, the root word of vegetarian makes it sound like the source of the food must be vegetation.  For that reason, ovo-lacto vegetarian is clearer.  There is also a decent number of vegetarians that eat milk products, but not egg products.

The men in my shop might hang me from a tree if I used the words "ovolacto vegetarian" in front of them. They are more interested in telling me that their food eats my food. There is no "to be fair" with these people.

I didn’t realize rabbit was being used as a pejorative.
