| Healthiness | 4.69 (1.88) | 4.92 (1.53) | 2.40 (2.00) | F(2,564) = 21.476, ŋ2 = 0.071 |
| Safety | 5.04 (1.91) | 5.58 (1.38) | 2.60 (2.32) | F(2,564) = 28.351, ŋ2 = 0.091 |

1 Expressed as M (SD), 1–7 Likert scale with response options 1 = totally disagree, 7 = totally agree. 2 The non-vegan vegetarian group includes semi-vegetarians (n = 97), lacto-vegetarians (n = 25), and lacto-ovo-vegetarians (n = 3). 3 Mean values were significantly different between dietary groups (One-Way ANOVA); p < 0.001.
