While there is no country with a 100% non-vegetarian population, some nations have extremely low percentages of vegetarian inhabitants due to deep-rooted cultural and environmental factors. The nation widely regarded as having the least vegetarian population, based on tradition and statistics, is Mongolia.

According to World Atlas and other sources, India consistently ranks as one of the countries with the lowest per capita meat consumption, alongside nations like the Democratic Republic of Congo. While India's vegetarian population is a major factor, the reasons for low meat eating are complex and vary globally.
