I've met people like this, they want the credit for being vegetarian but won't make the sacrifice of actually quitting meat!. They probably also find it's a way of alleviating some of the guilt they feel about eating meat and animal welfare issues!.
As annoying as people like this are, I do think about what would happen if all the omnis in the world only ate meat on weekends; think how many animals would be saved!. So in that respect, it's got to be a positive step!. It's just irritating to those of us who have the commitment to be veg all the time!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Any reduction in meat consumption is good!. But your cousin is still an omnivore, this apparent "part time vegetarian" term sounds alot like the made up "flexitarian" that keeps being used!. If he/she reduces their meat intake that great for their health, the animals and the environment, but don't go about calling your self vegetarian or "part time vegetarian" because there's no such thing!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I think they are an omnivore who eats vegetarian meals in the week and meat at the weekends!.
But on saying that i think it is good your cousin eats more vegetarian meals than meat ones, at least they are doing something to help the environment and their health! :)
Kim you are a vegetarian but your cousin isn't!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I've known "vegetarians" that "only" eat bacon!. Life is full of choices!.
I hate to see such issues in black and white anyway!. Eating farm raised shrimp and predator fish(tuna, swordfish) is bad in my opinion, but eating wild caught shrimp or fish low on the food chain(scrod) is not!. Eating more than a pound of meat a day is immoral to me, but living without animal based food at all is pretty dismal!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

There is such a sense of entitlement on both sides of this! It's idiotic that someone would call themselves a part-time vegetarian, and it's equally idiotic that someone would care what they call themselves!.
I grew up in a boring world where people were more concerned about what was for dinner than what they should or should not call themselves while they ate it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I think it's stupid!.
If you eat meat, you are NOT a Vegetarian!. You cannot label yourself a Vegetarian and then go and have a hamburger just because your visiting your uncle!.
And while we're on the subject, what's with Pescitarians!? (Keep in mind, I'm talking about the ones that do it for animal rights!.) Fish are animals!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

who cares what others eat!? Why do we even have names for the diets we eat!. Just eat what makes you and your body happy!. also, be happy that you live some place where you have the CHOICE and LUXURY to eat what you want and not just what is available!.

Does it matter!? I don't think there's anything wrong with it!. I'm not a vegetarian, but love my sister's vegetarian cooking!. So I guess I'm a vegetarian only when I eat meals with her!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
