"...it looks like a vegan diet if that means anything. Or is it a vegetarian diet, I get them confused"

By that, I am assuming that the 'meaty' ingredients are made of soy? That's fairly typical for 'survival food'. It seems to keep longer. Some people say that, properly seasoned, it's hard to tell between soy and meat. OTOH, carnivores like me have no problem telling the real thing.

Vegans are the folks who eat purely things that grow directly from the ground. No meat, eggs, dairy, fish, or derivatives (like lard), and they don't wear leather, feathers, etc.

Vegetarians frequently eat fish, dairy and eggs.

It can be difficult to get 2,000 calories a day on a vegan diet, esp if there's not much fat involved, either.
