Formidable work. Given recent discussions, might it be worth adding “vegan” to “vegetarian”? (And perhaps even “pescetarian” or “flexitarian” but I suppose one can get lost in small distinctions.)
Alternatively, there could just be the single question ‘Are you a vegetarian’, and below, a text box next to the question ‘if you answered ‘yes’, why are you a vegetarian?
Not sure whether “aethetics/personal taste” is common enough to be worth breaking out of “Other” but I’m vegetarian because I’m a picky eater and hate the texture of meat.

I’d propose the following three:
vegan
vegetarian
reduced meat intake
The latter, ‘reduced meat intake’ is intended to represent pescetarian, flexitarian, and meat reduction all in one.
This is a good idea

I don’t think a text box is called for, but radio buttons of Ethics/Health/Other might be good.
