What Are The Dietary Restrictions In Buddhism?

What Are The Dietary Restrictions In Buddhism?
In Buddhism alcohol is strictly prohibited.  For meat you have to kill a sentient being which is the biggest sin. Therefore consuming any kind of meat is not encouraged or appreciated but also not strictly prohibited as some of the countries which are situated very high, where plantation is not possible, people have to depend on animal product like meat, milk and butter etc. [Dr. T.D. Kartsang]
