Pescetarian isn't the word you're looking for.
Meat-eater would be more appropriate.

You can be a lacto vegetarian. (someone who doesn't eat animals(including fish), but consumes dairy). But Pescetarian isn't the right word to describe a fish-eating diet.

You can say you consume no animal products except dairy and fish, but "pescatarian" really is a made-up word used to describe people who eat no meat other than fish.

A "pescatarian" is not any type of vegetarian. If you eat fish along with plant matter..you are an omnivore.

They both are Just the thing for your health. If you eat both, you're better off. But yea, I've choose fruits because they taste better.

It will depend on the fruit or veg involved with a comparison. In the event that you compare a farreneheit to a carrot, the carrot is the better of the two nutritional. When you compare an avocado to the carrot, then an avocado is better. The two the apple and avocado, are fruits.

Because everybody needs a label --- your handy-dandy complete list of labels.


VEGETARIAN (Lacto-ovo- vegetarian) (sometimes also referred to as herbivore)
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).
Lacto-vegetarian is used to describe a vegetarian who does not eat eggs, but does eat dairy products.
Ovo-vegetarian refers to people who do not eat meat or dairy products but do eat eggs.

VEGAN
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. There is some debate as to whether certain foods, such as honey, fit into a vegan diet.


FRUITARIANS –
They eat only fruits, nuts and seeds.(This includes the fruit of vegetables such as tomatoes and courgettes. However they never eat the roots of plants such as carrots and potatoes)

PISCIVORE –
The word piscivore is 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, more and more people are adopting this kind of diet, usually for health reasons or as a stepping stone to a fully vegetarian diet. Pescatarian is occasionally used but is incorrect.

POULTRYIVORE –
Eats chicken and turkey, but does not eat mammals.

FLEXITARIAN/SEMI-VEGETARIAN
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.

RAW VEGAN/RAW FOOD DIET
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.

MACROBIOTIC
The macrobiotic diet, revered by some for its healthy and healing qualities, includes unprocessed vegan foods, such as whole grains, fruits and vegetables, 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.

OMNIVORE –
Eats both animal and plant matter.

CARNIVORE
Only eats meat.

LANDIVORE
Eats meat, but does not eat seafood or fish.

SUSHIVORE
Eats fish but only uncooked.

BEEFEATER –
Guards the Tower of London.

SNACKATARIAN –
Will not eat snacks made in the image of animals. Chocolate Easter eggs, animal crackers, goldfish crackers, gummy bears, or swedish fish.

OVO-SNACKATARIAN
Will not eat animal crackers, goldfish crackers, gummy bears or swedish fish, but WILL eat Chocolate Easter eggs.

PESCASNACKATARIAN
Will eat goldfish crackers and swedish fish but will not eat gummy bears and animal crackers.

I think so, just means you don't eat meat or eggs, but you do eat fish and dairy products (and obviously other non animal foodstuffs)

I guess so, but that's not related to vegetarianism.
