There are millions of estimated vegetarians throughout Europe. A general idea is that about 4-5% of the entire population is vegetarian and strictly follows the diet as well.
It is estimated that there are around 375 million vegetarians worldwide. This number includes both strict vegetarians who avoid all animal products, as well as semi-vegetarians who may consume some animal products, such as eggs or dairy.
India has the most number of vegetarians. According to various sources (including Food and Agricultural Organization, UNO and United States Department of Agriculture, USA), about 30% (average of estimates) of Indian population is vegetarian. That means as of 2010 more than 300 million Indians are vegetarians. Indian vegetarians are rarely vegans and mostly lacto vegetarians (that is, vegetarians who consume milk, but not meat or eggs). There are substantial lacto ovo vegetarians (that is, who consume milk and eggs, but not meat), too.
