I always thought there was a different word for a vegetarian who doesn't eat fish like there is a word for those who do eat chicken.

How can one be a vegetarian if he eats chicken?  :huh:
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

If it it was, he'd have unveiled his new idea to swim to Hokkaido, and we'd be all trying to talk him out of it.

Don't be silly. He'd get one of these:

Quote from: TyrStrange she wouldn't eat fish, most veggies do. I always thought there was a different word for a vegetarian who doesn't eat fish like there is a word for those who do eat chicken.

The word for someone with a principally vegetarian diet who does eat fish is "pesco-vegetarian" or "pescetarian."

Not really, fish are clearly inferior animals to mammals and birds.

Is there kosher food in Japan?
I would hope not.  The Japanese know better than to accommodate the habits of inferior cultures.

I can't think of any culture that is inferior.  Who else produces anime?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Imbecile better still.  That's what you call someone who attempts to over-moralize their diet.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Real people don't use that term.
