Just curious: would vegetarians or vegans eat sea cucumbers?

How about sea urchin?

How about mushroom?

Sea cucumbers and sea urchins are animals. They are not related to cucumbers in any way except in shape.

Mushrooms are fungi, which were originally classified as plants. Now they are considered neither plants nor animals, but still non-sentient.

Sea cukes are living creatures so a true vegetarian would not eat them. Same answer for sea urchins. But mushrooms are just fungus...eat away!!!!

It would depend if the vegetarian ate fish, but sea cucumbers and sea urchins are just as much alive and animals as fish, so true vegetarians and vegans would not eat them. Just because they live in the sea doesn't mean they are intelligent ... it's proven that octapus' have the intelligence of a 3 yr old human (just though I;d add that tidbit that I learn today, lol)

And mushrooms are fungi ... so I dunno what your on about with them ... their as alive and sentient as a carrot.

I wouldn't eat any of them.
Sea cucumbers are animals as are sea urchins.

Mushrooms are a fungus and I don't eat them b/c I think they're gross.
