Question: Opinions please, thanks :]


Answers: Opinions please, thanks :]

Yes. Most of the worlds vegetarians eat fish.

NO WAY!! seafood or rather sealife is not eaten by vegetarians.

No. Vegetarianism means not eating animal flesh. All seafood is part of the animal kingdom. Fish, shrimp, calms, muscles, lobsters, crab, etc... they all have nerves, they all hurt. They are all animals, and anyone who says that they eat seafood is a pescatarian, not a vegetarian.

No, vegetarians do not eat dead animals.

Fish are friend - Nemo!

I don't eat my friends! Do you eat your friends?

A lobster is not a vegatable and neither is a shrimp. It is not vegetarian food.

NO vegetarians only eat fruits vegetables and dairy...
NO MEAT OR food that comes from an ANIMAL ?

Sea vegetables (seaweeds, etc), but not sea animals.

No.

nope
that's a piscatarian.
vegetarians dont eat anything with flesh.

No... that's a penciltarian. they also eat pencils. vegetarians do not eat animals. It has nothing to do really with the word "meat", it has to do with the word "animal."

nope

NO,why would it be ok to eat animals that live in watter but not ones who livs on land?if some one eats fish they are not a vegaterian.

vegaterns dont eat animals, science when was a fish not an animal?

its no bout not eating meat its about not eating animals

No, true vegetarians don't eat seafood. However someone coined the term Pescatarian for someone who primarily follows a vegetarian diet but with occasional seafood added.

Vegetarians think the term Pescatarian is a bad term because it implies that it is a form of vegetarianism when it really isn't.

vegans and vegetarians are different from each other.ir u r on vegetarian diet for healthy reason..ofcourse u could eat seafoods i.e. sea weeds and sea animals..but if ur reason for being vegetarian is about animal awareness (vegan)obviously u cant eat sea animals that includes of not consuming any products thatt derives from animal inluding clothing,dairy products,perfumes tested on animals etc.

There is no "opinion." Vegetarians don't eat animals. Fish are animals. It's cut & dried.

To me, vegetarianism is not eating animals. That's how it is defined in any dictionary I ever read.

My wife is a Hindu, not all Hindus are vegetarian, but it's very clear what vegetarianism is to them and her religious leader isn't going to suddenly declare any animal flesh to be "vegetarian."

Some people call themselves vegetarian and eat fish, chicken, beef or whatever. I'm not sure why. I guess they like the word for some reason.

No, it is still an animal and it still deserves respect if it has gills. One way that vegetarians define their diet is that they eat nothing that has (or had) a face.

Fish aren't meat. I eat fish several times a week.

No! They are living thing and have feeling
Is the same as fish. some fish also consider seafood

i m eat veg & seafood. i m eat all kind food's

Vegetarians do not eat animals.

Fish, shrimp, clams and scallops are all animals.

Vegetarians that eat seafood do not exist because such a thing is not possible.

yes fish or shrimp isn't meat but if your a vega you dont eat fish milk or egg

Technically, if you are a pescetarian, vegetarian who eats seafood, then they can eat seafood, but vegetarian is like a group, for example:

Pescetarian - vegetarian who eats seafood but no meat.

Vegan - a strict vegetarian who does not eat dairy products, meat and seafood

Lacto/ovo - a vegetarian who drink milk and eat egg, also vegan products

Lacto-vegetarian - a vegetarian who drink milk and vegan products

Ovo-vegetarian - a vegetarian who eats egg also vegan products

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.

Flexitarian - is a term recently coined to describe those who eat a mostly vegetarian diet, but occasionally eat meat.
