Poultry and Fish Eating Vegetarian?!


Question: Poultry and Fish Eating Vegetarian?
What is the correct term for a "vegetarian" who doesn't eat meat, but does eat fish and chicken/turkey.

Answers:

The term you're looking for is pesca-pollo-tarian.

EDIT: As you can see by the other answers, and the fact that I got two thumbs down for providing you with the correct term, you're not going to make any friends in the vegetarian community by using this label. I think it's utterly ridiculous that vegetarians are so judgemental towards individuals who limit their meat intake, but what can you do, right? Pesca-pollo-tarianism is definitely not the same as vegetarianism, but it is a word for a specialized diet. If you want to use it, thumbs up from me.



Fish and poultry are both meat. Any type of animal flesh is meat. A person who avoids meat from mammals but eats all other kinds of meat is a pescepollotarian. It isn't any form of vegetarian whatsoever. It is a type of meat-limiting diet.



There is no such thing as a vegetarian who eats poultry and fish/seafood.
If you only ate fish, you would be considered a pescetarian.
But if you eat poultry as well as fish...you're not vegetarian.
You'd be an omnivore - meat eating.

Vegan.



If you want the label its a pollo-pescatarian, how fancy a word, but to any vegetarian you're basically just a fussy eater or limited eater of meat. Its in no way a vegetarian diet, just a potentially healthy one



flexitarian is one of the new lables for people who are not vegetarian but are someone who doesnt eat red meat, tho they do eat white meat

generally most veggies dont consider that vegetarian in any way, its just a meat eater who eats white meat not red



"Not a vegetarian". If what you're eating has a mom, you are not a vegetarian. Anyone who tells you otherwise is wrong.



Well since fish, chicken, and turkeys are all animals and meat comes from animals, people who eat them are simply omnivores.

vegan :D



There is no such thing as a 'poultry and fish eating vegetarian'.
Vegetarians do not eat animals.
Fish, chickens, turkeys...they were all animals, the last time I checked.



He's a picky omnivore. Chickens, turkeys and fish are animals. Vegetarians don't eat animals.



There is no "special title" for omnivores who are picky eaters. Just tell people you don't eat red meat or that you only eat fish and poultry.

Vegan



Sorry, but fish/chicken/turkey ARE meat and you are NOT a vegetarian.
