I had a teacher in junior high who was vegetarian who ate fish. We asked her about that and she said that some vegetarians eat a little meat as long as it’s not red meat. This would be more a semi-vegetarian diet such as pescetarianism (allows for the eating of fish and other seafoods), pollotarianism (polutry is ok), and pollo-pescetarianism (fish and poultry). Me, I’m an omnivore. Humans are natural ominivores, we eat meat and plants and I don’t see we should try being all herbivore or all carnivore. Vegetarians, especially vegans, push the herbivore diet as healthy and meat as not. If that’s so, how come whenever you hear folks who live to be well over a hundred never say they owe it to being vegetarians. Quite often they talk about which read meats they eat on a daily basis, along with pork.
