If pig is pork, and cow is beef, why is fish, just fish???????!
Answers: That's very interesting. Never thought of that to be honest.
now that is funny look at the Q u just asked
Its just different culinary names.
Because fish is not the name of the animal. The animal is called either Trout, Walleye, Northern, and so on. So "Walleye is to Fish" as "Cow is to Beef".
Lamb = Lamb = Sheep
Veal = Veal = Beef
Chicken= Chicken = Poultry
Duck = Duck
Tofu = Soybeans = Edamame = Tofurky
Fish = Fish = Seafood
WHY?? Why?? WhY??????
its seafood
HAHAHAHAH lol
um some fish are called tuna && trount
...........................................
Meh.
Because it swims, you ninnie!
its seafood
Pig is not = pork. Pork refers specifically to the meat of a pig, and there are other parts. In fact it is said that we use every part of a pig except its squeal. And not to put too fine a point on it, but while cow may be = beef, beef is not always = cow. Beef is any bovine more than 1 year old, and may be cow, hiefer, steer or a bull under 2 years. So it isn't as simple as you try to paint it -- except maybe for fish. Things seldom are. Live and learn.
Fishy, isn't it?
Don't know but have wondered the same thing. I quess there really is no reason?
Interesting point....couldn't think of an answer to that one!! (LOL)
Fish isn't fish, it's seafood
whadya gonna call it, flipper? who cares what its called...
because God asked the animals what they want their meat to be named:
You filthy pig ?
"pork" squealed the pig
Let it be so !
You fat cow?
"beef" mooed the cow
Let it be so !
You slimy fish?
??
??.......??
the fish was quiet like a fish
