Jain dietary practices are rooted in the principles of non-violence (ahimsa) and respect for all forms of life.
Jains follow a strict vegetarian diet that seeks to minimize harm to living beings. Surprisingly,milk and cheese are part of Jain cuisine. Jainism by tradition does not limit dairy products becauseback in the day, cows were treated in a much more humane manner on family farms, and it did not harm the animal. With the dairy industry having “industrialized” milk production more than ever, many Jains have opted to the vegan diet as well. Some Jains are vegans but it's not required by the tenets of Jainism.

However, Jainism is very much a religion in its own right and its followers have to keep a strict code of conduct especially when it comes to dietary, it has to be meaningful.
