Some people say they are vegetarian but eat chicken?!
I don't get this!.!.!. Its like "vegetarian" is becoming fashionable or something!! Please explain!. I think saying you are veggie who eats chicken is like saying you are a dog but you are actually a cat!. I don't get it!!!

You are right, its not correct use of the word vegetarian!.
But really, you would be better asking the specific people why they do it!. this general forum cannot really second guess thier reasoning!.
Vegetarainism has not sudeenly become popular, its had a dedicated following for hundreds of years!.
what has become popular is the rise of mis-information on the internet - that allows people to claim some things as fact, when really theay are not!. Unfortunately, some people believe it the mis-information and don't check the source,Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yeah being vegetarian has become more popular and SOME people will be just doing it as a fashion thing, but a lot for health reasons after all the health scares; so far no-one's come up with mad-carrot disease!
I've never heard of a vegetarian who still eats chicken but it's common to meet 'vegetarians' who eat fish, for some reason that's been thought of as okay for a long time, by some wannabe veggies!.
I'm not vegetarian but I might be one day; I'm gradually losing any interest in eating meat!. It's not for ethical or health reasons, I just don't fancy very often anymore!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yeah that annoys me too!. Especially people who call themselves "Semi-vegetarians"
Huh!? Call me aristotelian, but you either eat only vegetables, or you don't eat only vegetables!. If you eat vegetables and some meat, then sorry, but you come under the classification of "omnivore"!. None of this oxymoronic "semi-vegetarian" garbage!.
Edit: Just a thought!. Maybe these 'vegetarians' who eat chicken think they grow it from bird seed!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

i supose the answer would vary from individual to individual!. there was a survey awhile back from relatively affluent/successful people who said they are vegetarians!. this study was later used to conclude that most successful and "smart" people were or tend to be vegetarians until it was later detemined that approximately one third of all those who said they were vegetarians actually ate chicken or fish on a regular basis!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
It's kind of like going to church on Sunday after you've been out all night partying :o)
I've had a number of people ask me "well you eat chicken and fish, don't you," or "my friend is a vegetarian but he eats fish!."
Other then calling the veggie police and having them all hauled off to veggie jail to be reprogramed I don't know what to do :o)Www@FoodAQ@Com

Im a chef, and these kind of people DRIVE ME NUTS! don't get me wrong I have nothing against real vegetaians!. I just hate the ones that ask for a vegetarian meal, and when i ask what sort vegetarian they are !?(meaning vegan ect) they tell me they can eat fish and prawns and scallops!. I hate that how dam stupid are some people!? just order the fish off the menu, why even ask for a vego meal!. I think they just do it for attention!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
these type of people are just down right idiots, i know somebody who says there a vegetarian, but they eat chicken, it's some kind of stupid doublethink, it really pisses me off, and yeah it has become fashionable, it's another way of saying i don't like red meat but i'll eat chickenWww@FoodAQ@Com
There is such a thing as pescitarian!. (not sure if it's spelled correctly) It means the person eats white meats like chicken and fish but not red meat!. personally I think it's just a case of being far too fussy! Hope this helpsWww@FoodAQ@Com
there are different types of vegetarian! some eat chicken, some eat fish etc etc!. being a vegetarian aint about just eating vegetables anyway, it just depends on how you look at things!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I think that pretty much means those people aren't actually vegetarian!Www@FoodAQ@Com
While on the subject, do vegans wear leather shoes!?
Don't they wear boots when it snows!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
