I like to describe myself as "mostly vegan".
When talking to others I urge them to see, like I do, a long continuum between eating 100% only meat and consuming 0% of animal products. I recommend people reflect on their values (causing pollution and animal suffering) and aim to decrease consumption of animal products to whatever level they are comfortable with. It can be a long process, and we all should be more supportive in helping people align their actions with their values.
Needless to say these kinds of conversations are better when the person is receptive and interested, not when you first meet them.
