Question

Why don't pescetarians eat chicken, and cow...?

Answer 1

They are different by COLOUR.

Answer 2

Because they don't want to?

Answer 3

Because fish aren't subjected to slaughterhouses like chickens, cows, and pigs are.  Another reason is b/c of the omega's that are in fish.

Answer 4

many pescatetarians feel as if chicken and fish are more tangible as real "animals", while its hard to give the same importance to seafood (i.e there are lots and lots of fish, but alot fewer chickens and cows). Also, they may see the massacring of fish as less brutal than land animals. Finally, some doctors recommend the consumption of seafood rather than the total rejection of all animal flesh whatsoever.

Answer 5

I'm not sure why exactly, however, they seem to believe that eating fish is somehow more moral than eating a land animal.

Fish do feel pain but some have the idea that they don't, which could be a reason.

Answer 6

Perhaps because they choose not to.

Answer 7

When i first gave up meat i still ate fish for a while, then when i got use to this i gave up fish too. I am a vegetarian now. Some people stay Pescetarains because they don't see fish as a animal in the same way a cow or chicken are.

Its a choice I guess, some people just like fish and not other meats.

Answer 8

because they are pescetarians so only eat fish and seafood. it is the same as vegans choosing not to eat animal products .

Answer 9

Not everyone is a pesca/vegetarian/vegan for moral reasons.

Some people have changed their diet for health reasons.  I'm not dairy-free because I have some moral objection to dairy farmers, it's because I'm allergic to it.

Seafood is much healthier than beef or chicken, so a choice is made.  

Answer 10

...um...is this supposed to be a joke? cause then they wouldn't be pescatraians. they'd just be typical week carivors.

Answer 11

It's healthy and fish don't feel pain.

Answer 12

They probably think that fish are unconscious.

That's pretty funny since fish have been evolving longer than mammals.

Answer 13

1.  "pescetarians" are not vegetarians.

2.  "pescetarians" are called such because the only flesh they eat is fish.

Answer 14

pescatarians eat fish but no meat.  That is what a pescatarian is.
