Why do some non-meat eaters still eat fish?!
fish=meat to me... it's flesh off a once live animal
Answers: I wasn't going to use the word vegetarian.. cause sometimes people don't really call themselves that when they don't eat meat, but they'll still eat fish.

Because eating fish in moderation is very healthy.
Fish= lunch to me.
simple, they just call themselves joe pescetarians to distinguish themselves from vegetarians.
Fish don't have feelings.
Perhaps they don't eat certain kinds of meat and fish is not one of those certian kinds? Because I don't eat red meat or pork (health reasons), but I do eat fish and poultry (pretty much just chicken and turkey). Maybe that's why?
Fish are smaller than other animals on earth. Such as cows or pigs.Also fish live in water. Another main reason is that pork and beef have a lot of fat.And the fish dont.Fish are healthy.
I have a fish tank in my house. I bring live fish from this chinese store and i kill them right before i eat them. It tasty tht way ! TRY IT !
the error is in their answers (the non meat eaters) or in your question. when many vegetarians say they don't eat meat they usually will still eat fish.
It is a little weird but the bottom line is ask them because all vegetarians are different.
Because the body NEEDS protein. Humans are omnivores. To do otherwise is to fight nature.
Because they make a distinction between mammals and cold blooded 'animals' like fish. They think that fish have smaller/lesser brains and therefore they don't feel pain as keenly as a cow for example.
Some don't wear leather. Some will only eat meat that has been humanely farmed etc etc.
All is to free themselves from guilt.
Better yet why do they still eat eggs. I mean there you are just killing a chicken fetus thats real great.
Many think that either fish don't feel pain because you can't hear them scream, although it has been proven fish do feel pain. Or they feel it is too hard and they won't be able to get the proper nutrition without fish, although again not the case.
Because I made a choice not to eat any meat raised for meat purposes. My body doesn't need the hormones and antibiotics that are added to their feed. I therefore, choose to eat fish and shellfish, but only those that are wild caught. Those raised in fish farms also are fed antibiotics and hormones. I prefer wild caught.
probably coz they're not cute n cuddley.
Farmed fish are worst of all. They live in horrible cramped conditions. They even cannibalise each other. They spread disease to wild fish populations. They often escape and outcompete wild populations. + you need to farm the at least 4 times the amount of wild fish to feed farmed ones. add some pesticides and herbicides to the mix too.
poor fishes =(
1) because they like fish
2) because they can eat fish
3) because they choose to eat fish
4) (maybe) because they don't care what other people call them or think of them.. they do what they think is right
as you said "fish=meat to me..." but don't expect everyone else to believe what "me" believes in..
toxins in fish
flesh include mercury, chromium, pcb's,
pbb's, arsenic, lead, radiation, uric
acid, fish fat, ecoli (colon bacteria..
fish too have intestines) hepatitis

waste eating fish), etc
In eating fish, one competes with
seals for them.. causing not yet
