I know some terms such as these:

vegan - no seafood, no eggs, no dairy, no chicken, no red meat

vegetarian - no seafood, chicken, eggs, but maybe on dairy and eggs (lacto vegetarian eats dairy, ovo vegetarian eats eggs, lacto ovo vegetarian eats dairy and eggs).

pescetarian - excludes all meat but seafood

pollotanarian - excludes all meat but birds

BUT, what about someone who eats meat such as birds and seafood, eats eggs and dairy but EATS NO MAMMALS at all?

I know I am opening up myself to some rude answers, but I would appreciate some kindness. Thanks in advance.

  1. It's an amammiovore. (literally not mammal eating) I've been one for 32 years with absolutely no exceptions, something I see many vegans and vegetarians cannot totally lay claim to.  Being an ammamiovore is thus sustainable for your personal practice.  Humans are mammals with extremely similar biological systems to all other mammals.  Eating mammals could be considered a form of cannabalism.  I have also never met another ammamiovore, so it's encouraging to know there are others. I did not make the decision to become an ammamiovore; it was an overpowering conviction after the death of my wife. I also do not begrudge any one their eating habits.  I can only speak for myself.


  2. yes... Mammals-r-my-friends-n-i-don't-eat-my-friends-etarian :-) x*x

  3. That is my diet.  I tell people two different things based on my audience.  I either say I don't eat beef or pork or I don't eat mammals.  

    I am a meat eater, not a vegetarian.

  4. This is in reply to Guest4519...

    Birds and seafood are not mammals.
