Sounds like it was made up buy a guy who wanted to eat fish but didnt want to called a meat eater to me

Well to be fair, many people dont perceive fish as meat.

Well ive never seen the difference tbh, i mean fish are living creatures just the same as animals such as cows and sheep. maybe they judge it on the level of intteligence of the animals but meh, not really a difference to me.

I've been a vegetarian for 2 years, but now I'm thinking about including fish in my diet to make more practical in addition to being healthy. The proper name for a person on this diet is a pescetarian, but many of these people call themselves "vegetarian" since not many people know what a pescetarian is. Is there anyone else here who is on that diet or thinking about it?

Damn, I thought I would be able to make jokes about pescetarians in this thread.
Doesn't that go against the entire concept of vegetarianism? If I just ate beef would I be a bovinarian?spazzx625
Ump, nevermind. I was cracking up when a guy in a video I had to watch in one of the many food classes I took in HS said he ate fish because he believe they have such great lifes. WTF?! Where do you get a measuring stick like that from?

i will eat pretty much anything that's placed in front of me (as long as it's food :P). i think it's kinda lame that some "vegetarians" will eat fish but not other meat.

Not every vegetarian is so because of ethical reasons. Fish is a lot healthier than meat.

Depends, there's a lot of mercury content in a lot of fish/seafood nowadays. You have to watch your mercury intake too.

I guess I should stop drinking from those thermometers...
