Here are some friends with simlar question as we.And I have this question for many days,anyone help us?
Kitty said: Yes.When did a fish become a vegetable?-I try seach this on internet but no results found.Maybe this is a stupid question.
Mike said: oh,no,you are wrong.I have found as below for this question(When did a fish become a vegetable?),it will help you,my kids.
I am a bit freaked out. I have been a vegetarian for over 6 years, and I have never heard (before Y!Answers) the idea of vegetarians EATING sea animals.
Vegetarians do not eat animals. Fish are animals. Vegetarians do not eat fish.
Having a name for people who do not eat any other animals than sea life is fine, but it has nothing to do with vegetarianism.
“ ANIMAL- noun
Etymology: Latin, from animale, ANIMATE,
1 : any of a kingdom of living things including many-celled organisms and often many of the single-celled>6 months ago
I understand there are various forms of vegetarianism because I read a lot.
But I still feel the second you eat an animal, you are, by very definition Not a vegetarian. An animal is an animal, and I can't find a logical argument against that.
Can't they be "semi-meat-eaters" or say "I don't eat red meat" or "I still eat fish so I am not quite a vegetarian yet."
ps. We vegetarians can have quite healthy diets, so please do not start arguing that.6 months ago
It is so wonderful I am not alone in the middle of all this ridiculousness.
Cant Y!Answers create a "Pesco" or “omnivore” section so animal eaters can go answer their own questions?
It is hard to find vegetarians who actually need answers when you have to explain basic biology to kids, such as: Fish have a eyes and a heartbeat; they do not eat using photosynthesis... blah blah blah... the VEGE in vegetarian does not mean "some animals are ok if you want them to be…. No, not even if you really really want them to be…
Sorry. I shouldn’t type when I just wake up. I sound way too grumpy. :)

"A vegetarian diet is>Pescetarians/Semi/Demi-Vegetar... -
Generally follow a vegetarian based diet but eat fish.
From a nutritionist's perspective, there is actually a lot of leeway under the term "vegetarian", from complete vegans who will not drink wine due to animal products used in its' production to lacto-ovo vegetarians, to semi-vegetarianism, whose adherents eat fish, dairy, and sometimes chicken...It's up to you to decide what you think about what you want to eat...
its strange i know vegetarian people that eat fish...well i mean HOW WILL THEY GET THEIR VITAMIN B's and proteins? if they dont anything that contains that stuff
I have a friend who calls herself a vegetarian but eats fish, and she explains that her reason for not eating meat is that she is trying to save energy. She says that it takes a LOT of energy and land to raise and kill a cow. LOTS more energy and land than soybeans would require, for example. Same thing for any farm-raised animal. her reason for not eating farm-raised meat (and farm-raised fish as well) is that she doesn't want to waste the energy required to turn sunlight into meat. She will eat fish that has been caught from the ocean, or lakes or streams, because, at least according to her, this form of nutrition does not come a the cost of a ridiculous amount of energy.
I'm not claiming that this makes it OK to call yourself a vegetarian, just that her reasons have nothing to do with avoiding foods that once had a face.
Just another form of being vegetarian.
Like catholics who can't eat meat on Fridays--eat fish...
maybe they just like the label. but your right, its not veggie!
I just LOVE vegetables, I'll eat any vegetable you put in front of me, even the gross ones like eggplant, okra, squash, celery, peas, carrots, lettuce, or kohlrabi. I am a vegetarian big time, BUT I also eat meat, especially small game, big game, jack rabbits, mice, fish, eels, mountain goat, Yak, and toads. Mmmmmm. I'm a vegetarian.
It is a corruption of the term "vegetarian". As far as I know, a true vegetarian eats vegetables only, no meat, fish, birds, etc.
Those who eat fish and still call themselves vegetarians should call themselves "i diots"
I could just hug you right now! For the past week or so I've noticed many people either claiming or asking if vegetarians eat fish. Driving me nuts!
i agree!!!! i get a little ticket when i see questions posted such as, "I'm a new veggie and i need good fish recipes!!!" I can't help but feel that this comes from people jumping into vegetarianism as a fad, knowing very little of what they're about to undertake. i understand that people want to be tolerant of all diets, as we should be, but let's be reasonable and use the proper names and definitions for said diets.
I'm a vegetarian, have been for years. And just because you johnny-come-lately's want to segregate vegetarianism into exactly what you had for breakfast and if it was arranged right, doesn't make it so.
define: Vegetarian
People who leave meat, poultry, fish and other animal-derived foods out of their diets.
So if you meet the definition you're a Vegetarian otherwise your somethin' else that includes vegetables in your diet.
THANK YOU!!! I am getting tired of people calling themselves "pesco-vegetarians", "pollo-vegetarians",
"semi-vegetarians", etc. They are NOT vegetarian. Sorry, but a person cannot call themselves "vegetarian" if they eat fish, poultry or beef flesh!
It's great that they decide to not eat a certain type of meat, but they are not vegetarian unless they avoid all types.
I think it stems from religion actually. What group obstains from "meat" on Friday's and instead eats "fish"? I think that group made it up because they could not bear to not eat flesh for one day a week and decided that fish is not a meat.
Fish have never become a veggie.
Some fish eat seaweed like some humans.
Other fish eat smaller fish because they need more protein to live without getting sick.

Or better yet, when did a fish cease to be an animal?I am a bit freaked out. I have been a vegetarian for over 6 years, and I have never heard (before Y!Answers) the idea of vegetarians EATING sea animals.
