Chicken, yes.
Fish, no.
That's why everyone eats fish and clam chowder on Fridays.
With love in Christ.

Chicken is. Fish is meat as it is the flesh of an animal, however it isn't considered "meat" as such in Judeo-Christian religious terms.
That's why Catholics eat fish as a meat on Fridays.

Fish is generally considered OK for Catholic fasting, but not chicken. The idea is you shouldn't be eating anything that you actually enjoy, so even if you do eat fish, you shouldn't make it extra yummy. BUt if you're giving up meat anyway, why not go vegetarian?

YES! The injunctions against any kind of meat is due to the fact that animals do have a soul. But, the old church could not tell the public that. Now we know the truth!

My Giggly sister, the chicken was rated as meat. However, you may have fish, oysters, turtle, frog or anything of this magnitude.

Technically speaking the flesh of any animal is meat...
But as far as what religious people will believe, it is anybodies guess.
