Technically your a vegetarian if you only eat chicken and fish?!


Question: Technically your a vegetarian if you only eat chicken and fish!?
Technically fish and chicken are not meat there poultry!.A friend told me this a while ago just wondering how true this statement is!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Vegetarians are people who do not eat any animal meat, poultry or otherwise!.
If you just eat fish then you are a 'pescatarian' (pesce meaning fish)!.
I don't believe you are a vegetarian at all if you eat chicken or fish, or both!. Vegetarians won't eat anything that has to be killed basically, thats why they will drink milk (no animal suffers) but won't eat beef!. It is generalised by being called 'meat' however it does include poultry and fish!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Actually you are not vegetarian if you still eat chicken and fish!.
If you would only eat fish then you would count as a "Pescetarian" but if you even still eat chicken which is a land animal then you are just a person who doesn't eat certain meat, and you shouldn't call yourself a vegetarian at all then!.!.!.!.

So I think your friend is wrong about this :)Www@FoodAQ@Com

meat

? noun 1 - the flesh of an animal as food!.



Technically fish and chicken are meat!. Vegetarians do not eat meat!. If that is confusing, think of it as vegetarians to not eat the flesh of animals (I'm sure your friend would agree that chickens and fish are animals!.!.!. if not!.!.!. get new friends)!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Although that is a perfect example of someone who speaks their mind without knowing anything about what they're talking about it still troubles me that someone can get the vegetarian concept so wrong!. Either they're kidding, or they're a genuine A grade moron!. I'm not exaggerating either, that is the most stupid thing I've read ever!Www@FoodAQ@Com

That is indeed false, because anything that is meat or poultry that is from an animal is not vegetarian!. Veg means veggies and non meat, so that is exactly what it is!. But if you did eat those things, it is a white meat vegetarian!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Well, you and your friend are quite a pair!. One says fish are poultry and the other believes them!.

Vegetarians don't eat animal flesh!. None!.

I should know!. I'm not a vegetarian or vegan!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

That statement is 100% false!.

Vegetarians do NOT consume meat, poultry, fish, or seafood!. Anyone who does and claims to be a vegetarian is either lying or severly misinformed!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Not true!. Real vegetarians do not eat animals!. Culinary categories like "meat, fish and poultry" have no relevance to vegetarians!. Anyone who says "vegetarians eat fish or poultry" doesn't understand what vegetarianism really is!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
