PSA: Just because you refuse red meat does NOT make you vegetarian

I've ran into countless people recently (women mostly) who feel they need to announce they are vegetarian. Okay. So they won't eat anything that has ever walked, hopped, swam, crawled or flew. Their choice.

Then, later on, I'll find out they eat seafood, chicken, turkey and pork!
This still makes them a frickin omnivore. Do they just like the sound of "vegetarian"?

Case in point: The other night we went out to a restaurant and I had the lumberjack porterhouse (36oz). I didn't really listen to what everyone else had ordered. When my steak came my sister's friend called me out and said it was absolutely disgusting what I was eating. She said she was vegetarian and would never eat that etc, etc. I shrugged her off and laughed, saying that I was a vegetarian for a decade.

A minute later the next server came with the rest of the food. Guess what she had? Chicken :roll:
Hint hint b!tch: chicken is not a fvcking plant!

I have the same complaint. Usually people claiming to be vegetarians won't eat chicken, but they almost always eat seafood. The biggest example is Catholics who were supposed to fast on Friday during lent. Then it was adjusted to no meat. Then it was adjusted to just give up something. So that is morphed into the mindset that they are avoiding meat by eating fish. How? I have no idea.

Yeah I asked her about the chicken.
"I thought you were a vegetarian"
"I am, I will only eat fish and chicken. Oh and pork"

Funny thing is that she was like 300lbs. (Side note: most vegetarians I've ran into, both proclaimed and the real deal always seem overweight, unhealthy and pale as hell)

OH MY FUCK1NG GOD, PLEASE SHOOT ANYONE IN THE FACE WHO EVER, EVER DOES THIS, EVER, EVER AGAIN.

SHE IS NOT A VEGETARIAN AND IF SHE EVER USES THAT DESCRIPTION ON HERSELF AGAIN, PLEASE KILL HER.

Despite all the caps and passion, I'm not elitist or militant, but that is beyond retarded, I would rather everyone in the world textspeaked than someone like that exist.

Tell me you called her on it. I would have razzed her about it until she left the table in tears.

That's because humans are not herbivores.

Are you a vegetarian if you drink milk? How about eat eggs?
I know cake and cookies and noodles have eggs in them.

That goes back to the vegetarian/vegan discussion.

The definition (at least around my geographic location) is that a vegetarian can eat anything that never lived. Eggs, milk and so forth were never "alive". Vegans just flat out refuse to use ANY animal product. Milk, eggs, leather...even if a cancer cure was in cow urine....these are all prohibited.

Yes you're a vegetarian. It's vegans who don't eat any animal products, such as eggs, cheese, milk, urine, feces, snot...

Hey, if I wasn't supposed to eat meat, I wouldn't be able to eat meat. I don't agree with the way animals are bred and slaughtered for food, and it makes me feel horrible when I think about it. So I don't think about it. It's a horrible way to look at it, but that is life.
