Do vegetarians eat seafood?
If the seafood you’re talking about is nori, wakame, Irish moss, agar-agar, hijiki, dulse, kelp, or something along those lines, then the answer is: Some do, some don’t. If the seafood you’re talking about is crustaceans, mollusks, fish, echinoderms, coelenterates, cephalocordates, cetaceans, sirenians, pinnipeds, reptiles, birds, amphibians, annelids, or something along those lines, then the answer is: No, because those are types of animals. Vegetarians do NOT eat animals. Anyone who eats animals cannot be classified as a vegetarian. There is no such thing as a “semi-vegetarian” or a “flexi-vegetarian” or a “pesce-vegetarian”. They are just bullsh*t words made up by people who want to have a ‘trendy’ label, but don’t have the will-power and/or moral backbone to stop eating animals in order to earn the label “vegetarian”. Even the label “pescetarian”, which I will grudgingly allow, does not describe a type of vegetarian. It describes a type of picky omnivore.
