UHHH how is seafood not meat? Correct me if im wrong but tissues from animals = meat.

Squid = Animal
Shrimp = Animal
Fish = Animal
Octopus = Animal

Therefore tissues from these marine animals = meat. Maybe I'm just insane.............................hm....

Interesting. I never knew that eating seafood would consider yourself a vegetarian. Lol, if that's the case then my father has been a vegetarian for about 10 years now. Lol, the only thing he would eat are seafood and rice. Lol.


forever you & i

As someone who eats a strict vegan buddhist diet, I have to break it to you but you are not considered a pure vegetarian. You are considered a pescotarian or semi. There is also pollotarian. Basically someone who avoids certain types of meats (such as red meats while still eating seafood, pork or chicken) Pesco describing seafood, pollo describing chicken..etc.

However you ARE correct in terms of definition of the word meat. The word meat for human consumption is usually used to describe livestock that is raised and butchered by a butcher, like pork, beef, chicken, however this doesn't make seafood NOT animal flesh.

If you eat seafood, then that's technically not a vegetarian.

Anyhows, I'm vegetarian. I've been one for about 2 years.

Some vegetarians eat soy meat substitutes, some don't. What don't you get? Your idea of a vegetarian is usually considered pure, real vegetarian. The other poster who said he/she ate seafood "but is still a vegetarian" is not, he/she is a pescotarian.

I talked to a girl recently and said she was still because "crabs and stuff don't have blood"..I had to break her the bad news and tell her that they indeed do have blood, it a very deep blue and tends to blend with the innards.

I couldn't believe she was 20 and actually believed this.

i've heard about vegetarians who eats/drinks dairy products but never heard any who ate seafood.

i don't think i could do it because i love meat so so much.

i used to be a vegetarian who consumed eggs and dairy, for about 1 1/2- 2 years....... and about eight months ago ive reverted back to the life of an omnivore, but i dont eat cheeseburgers, i rarely eat red meat... and whenever i go to subway i order the veggie delite.

i dont like meat, but i didnt want to be really nitpicky either about what i ate. It isn't healthy to have a lot of meat in your diet, period... so..... yeah.
