    I don’t know why so many people think fish is vegetarian

    It isn’t. But it’s relatively common to be vegetarian + fish. And historically fish didn’t really count as meat which is why Christians were allowed to eat it during pre-Easter “fasting”.

    I’m sorry you’re being served fish and other water animals as “vegetarian”, that’s fucked up.

      vegetarian + fish

      no it is not, vegetarian+fish is oxymoron. vegetarian means you don’t eat meat. not eating pork and beef does not make you vegetarian.

      “pescatarian”. Not vegetarian.
