Well, it depends. Vegetarianism consists of not eating animals, and may including fish and other seafood, but there are varying degrees of vegetarianism, and some vegetarians will consume dairy products and eggs, some will consume dairy products but not eggs, and some will consume neither. Being vegan is not eating animals or animal products. All vegans are vegetarians, but not all vegetarians are not vegan.
Yes, eating cheese is not eating meat. It might have rennet (a coagulant) in it, which can be derived from either animal (most common) or vegetable sources. So, depending on how strictly vegetarian you are, you may or may not want to eat ricotta. You can try going on the company's website to see if if specifies the coagulant's source. By law, all vegetarian products in the UK must be symbolised with a green V on the packaging so they can easily be spotted by vegetarians.

Short food chains mean that your food is close to the source. All food ultimately comes from plants. If you eat a vegetarian animal, it was raised on plants. If you eat a carnivorous animal, you are eating an animal who has eaten another animal who ate a plant. Eating a carnivorous animal makes you part of a longer food chain than if you eat plants directly.
Food derived from plants and not from animals. Many vegetarians also eat foods that do not require slaughter of an animal such as dairy products, eggs and honey, but many vegetarians don't eat those foods. Be sure to get enough protein--you can get it from dairy products, eggs, nuts and seeds, whole grains and beans. A common nutritional error for vegetarians (and non-vegetarians) is eating too many refined carbohydrates.
Vegetarians refrain from eating any product that has animals in it, including meat, poultry, fish, and gelatin. Strict or pure vegetarians (also known as vegans) also refrain from eating anything that comes from an animal, including dairy, eggs, and honey. That leaves plenty of healthy food, including fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, and mushrooms.
It is about a fair split. While some will remain partial vegetarians, many will ultimatel bdome full-fledged vegetarians or even vegan after many years.
