Question

QUESTIon STUPIDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Answer 1

Kelly K- if fish isn't a meat then what is it, a vegetable? a grain? a fruit?
It's an animal and it's a meat. Vegetarians don't eat meat. Period.

People who felt some need to label themselves invented the word "pescetarian" for people who only eat fish.

Answer 2

An Itchytarian, a person who thinks that fish don't feel pain or have a right to live a free life.
Similar to the Poultrytarian, a person who thinks that eating meat is wrong, unless it's chicken.

Answer 3

An ichthyophagist, which means a fish eater. Funny, haven't seen the word used here before, except when I posted a question about it earlier in the evening. One of those strange coincidences.

Answer 4

With so many people around the world starving to death, who would be greatful to have ANYTHING to eat, I am appalled by the semantic bickering over whether people who eat fish are actually "true" vegetarians. You petty, elitist, selfish, food-nazi's make me sick! You should all be ashamed of yourselves.

Top 6 Types of Vegetarians

Pescatarian

Definition: Occasionally used to describe those who abstain from eating all meat and animal flesh with the exception of fish. Although the word is not commonly used and a pescatarian is not technically a vegetarian, more and more people are adopting this kind of diet, usually for health reasons or as a stepping stone to a fully vegetarian diet. Pescetarians often believe that moderate consumption of fish or fish oils, which are high in Omega-3 fatty acids, is necessary for optimum health, although vegetarian alternatives, such as flax seed oil, are available.

Alternate Spellings: Pescetarian
Common Misspellings: Pescitarian

Flexitarian/Semi-vegetarian

Definition: You don’t have to be vegetarian to love vegetarian food! “Flexitarian” is a term recently coined to describe those who eat a mostly vegetarian diet, but occasionally eat meat. Many people have given up red meat for health reasons while others, for environmental reasons, only eat free-range or organic animals and animal products. Beware, however, that many full-time vegetarians resent the use of this term as such headlines as “Meat-eating vegetarian” confuse and dilute the definition of a “true” vegetarian diet. However, as PETA spokesman Bruce Friedrich says, “If people influenced by health consequently cut back on fish and meat consumption that helps animals.

If two people cut their meat in half it helps as much as one person going completely vegetarian.” Remember, whatever your choice, you’re taking a huge positive step forward for your health, the environment and the animals.
Also Known As: Semi-vegetarian

Vegetarian (Lacto-ovo vegetarian)

Definition: When most people think of vegetarians, they think of lacto-ovo-vegetarians. People who do not eat beef, pork, poultry, fish, shellfish or animal flesh of any kind, but do eat eggs and dairy products are lacto-ovo vegetarians (“lacto” comes from the Latin for milk, and “ovo” for egg). This is the most common type of vegetarian in North America.
Lacto-vegetarian is used to describe a vegetarian who does not eat eggs, but does eat dairy products. Many Hindu vegetarians are lacto-vegetarians who avoid eggs for religious reasons while continuing to eat dairy.

Ovo-vegetarian refers to people who do not eat meat or dairy products but do eat eggs. Some people are ovo-vegetarians because they are lactose-intolerant.

Vegan

Definition: Vegans do not eat meat of any kind and also do not eat eggs, dairy products, or processed foods containing these or other animal-derived ingredients such as gelatin. Many vegans also refrain from eating foods that are made using animal products that may not contain animal products in the finished process, such as sugar and some wines. Although there is some debate as to whether certain foods, such as honey, fit into a vegan diet, if you are cooking for other vegans, it is best to err on the side of caution and avoid using these foods.
Perhaps the most common question about veganism is “What do vegans eat?” A vegan diet includes all grains, beans, legumes, vegetables and fruits and the nearly infinite number of foods made by combining and preparing them. Many vegan versions of familiar foods are commercially available, which means you can purchase vegan hot dogs, ice cream, yogurt, cheese and mayonnaise.

Most vegans also avoid the use of all products tested on animals, as well as animal-derived non-food products, such as leather, fur and wool, whenever possible.
Pronunciation: VEE-gun (not VAY-gun)
Also Known As: Strict vegetarian

Raw Vegan

Definition: A raw vegan diet consists of unprocessed vegan foods that have not been heated above 115 degrees Fahrenheit (46 degrees Celsius). “Raw foodists” believe that foods cooked above this temperature have lost a significant amount of their nutritional value and are harmful to the body. Many people clarify that they eat a “high raw” or a certain percentage raw, such as “75% raw” and some include raw, unprocessed dairy products as well. The raw diet has seen an increase in popularity in recent years, though it still remains to be seen if this trend is here to stay or is merely another passing fad.
Also Known As: Raw foodism, living foods

Macrobiotic

Definition: The macrobiotic diet, revered by some for its healthy and healing qualities, includes unprocessed vegan foods, such as whole grains, fruits and vegetables in specific proportions, and allows the occasional consumption of fish. Sugar and refined oils are avoided. Perhaps the most unique qualifier of the macrobiotic diet is its emphasis on the consumption of Asian vegetables, such as daikon, and sea vegetables, such as seaweed.
