Or is there some mention of him eating meat in the Bible?

No, He ate meat. He is described in the Gospels partaking of the Passover supper, where the main course was a lamb. Also, He ate fish after His resurrection.
Peace.

There really is no mention of Jesus eating anything but bread, drinking wine (at the last supper), and also eating fish(when He appeared to the apostles, and asked them if they had anything for Him to eat). Other than these 3 items, there is No mention of Him eating/drinking anything else in the Bible.

As long as you don't count fish, then anything is possible. I guess I will have to take a closer look at the picture of the last supper and see what is on the table.... oh wait, it was made after the fact, just like the bible.

Think about it. Its not like jerusalum was rich with lush forested areas and meat to eat.... they didn't breed cattle back then either. Its a lot harder to kill an animal with sticks than to catch a fish. If he lived in a forest area, I garuntee he would have eaten meat, but instead he lived near the ocean. Vegetarianism is just a trendy way of saying "I don't understand the way mother nature works."
Of course he could have made meat appear out of thin air since he was all powerful....

He ate fish. He could be considered a vegetarian by today's standards but not a vegan. Also this is used by Peta and other groups to sway people to vegetarianism. I say eat a little of everything and allot of nothing.

define vegetarian. One that's okay with poultry and fish? Then maybe so. But as far as I know, there are no references in the Bible about Jesus eating a salad ;)

If he ate fish, then no, he was not vegetarian. To the ignorant masses: chicken and fish are animals. Meat is the flesh of animals. Vegetarians don't eat animals. Vegans don't eat animals or animal products (cheese, milk, etc).

not likely,
remember according to the Bible he had a passover Seder. The main point of the passover Seder was eating the sacrificed sheep offering.
If he was an observant Jew he would have very likely done this.

Possible. No one ever saw him eating fish & Bible was not written while he was eating fish, meat. etc.

He was not a vegetarian coz he had to eat fish for instance when he fed the 5,000 people
