  1. If you eat fish, then you'd be a pescatarian or something.


  2. No they still breathe grow & reproduce riqht? exactly so no you are not considered a vegetarian

    God Bles

  3. I think you would be considered a pescatarian.

  4. Yes you can.

  5. sorry but no

  6. You know, it wouldn't matter if you want to eat fish, as long as you feel comfortable about it. Besides I don't think is right to be a fanatic of anything.

  7. No, since vegetarians don't eat any animals and fish are animals.

  8. For  'THE WHITE DEVIL' above....I think YOU needed to stay in school longer you r****d. Don't be so patronising and small minded. Vegetarians do not eat fish....that is a fact, not an opinion. A non-meat-eater who still eats fish is called a 'Pescatarian', not a vegetarian. Do you feel a little stupid now? I certainly would.

  9. No. A fish is a sea animal. Not a vegetable.

  10. no

  11. Not really, because a vegetarian is someone who doesn't eat ANY meat.

  12. That all depends, some people say yes, others say not to eat anything with a face.  But it's more about perspective than anything.

  13. No.

  14. nope, vegetarians don't eat any kind of meat

  15. Don't think so, but I think they might have a special name for that kind of diet.

  16. Pescetarianism is a dietary choice, in which a person — known as a pescetarian — eats fish or other non-mammalian aquatic animals but will not eat terrestrial animals or marine mammals. Some animal products like eggs and dairy may be part of a pescetarian diet.

    Terms like pesco-vegetarianism are sometimes used to describe pescetarianism, to emphasize that pescetarians abstain from eating the flesh of land animals. However, these terms are controversial and lesser-used, in part because they imply that pescetarianism is a type of vegetarianism. The Vegetarian Society, which initiated popular use of the term vegetarian as early as 1847, does not consider pescetarianism a valid vegetarian diet.[1] Some other entities accept pescetarianism as a valid vegetarian diet, including MedicineOnline.com,[2] Vegetarian.LifeTips.com,[3] and the Centre for Cancer Education.[4] The definitions of "vegetarian" in authoritative, mainstream dictionaries vary.[5]

  17. No, vegetarians are people who don't eat any animals at all which includes fish. However, if you don't want to eat meat from cows and other animals but want to eat fish you would be considered a pescetarian. Best of luck!

  18. Of course not.  Can I still be considered a virgin if I had s*x?

  19. Don't listen to these people, you are still a vegetarian if you eat fish. These people should have stayed in school a little longer before giving advice.

  20. Real vegetarians don't eat any kind of animal.

    Real vegetarians would not consider a person who eats fish to be a vegetarian.

    Some people eat fish and call themselves vegetarians, but they really aren't.

  21. no, vegetarians don't eat any kind of animal

  22. No. Fish are killed by means of suffocation, probably one of the most painful kinds of death there is. Disgusting.

  23. The answer to that is NO.

    fish = living, breathing creature.

    vegetarians do not eat any sort of living creatures.

  24. Yes, only Vegans do not eat fish or dairy products. Vegetarians do.

  25. No.  Flesh is flesh.

  26. well, you would be considered a pescatarian, since you ate fish, but not any other types of meat. so you can't really use the vegetarian term, because real vegetarians and vegans will just set you straight every time
