Is fish meat?!


Question:

Is fish meat?


Answers:
Yes, well it is flesh and so you cannot eat fish and be a vegetarian

I consider the flesh of any creature to be meat.

basically meat is the flesh of anything in the animal Kingdom.

This having been said, i know a number of people who acknowledge this fact but will still eat fish whilst calling themselves vegetarians.

The reason for this I have found is that they wont or cant eat red meat and find it far easier to just call themselves vegetarians when going to someones house or out somewhere, than it is for them to explain that they eat fish, but not any other meat.

Cheers and hope this helps

No, it is an aquatic creature.

Yes.

"Meat, in its broadest definition, is animal tissue used as food."

"The term "fish" is most precisely used to describe any non-tetrapod chordate, i.e., an animal..."

fish have flesh and flesh is meat.

yes, of course it is. It comes from a living creature

Yes, fish flesh is meat, but I really like Croa's answer. Fishes are living, swimming, breathing, bleeding things, and they shouldn't be thought of as food :)

Yes. Technically, in eating fish you are eating their muscles/flesh just as in eating any other animal.

Yes, I'm afraid so it is the dead flesh of a member of the animal kingdom.

of course fish is meat.
