Question:

This girl i know claims to be a vegetarian but she eats chicken and turkey????

is she really a vegetarian?


Answers:
Maybe shes a non-red meat vegetarian.

tell her she's a liar

No. She just doesn't eat red meat.

Not if she is chomping down on animal flesh

then she's not a vegetarian! duhh.

No, she eats meat, that means NOT a vegetarian!

Vegetarians eat ONLY VEGETABLES!
A true "vegan" will not even use any eggs or dairy products.

That would be a big NO

No.

It's like claiming to be a millionaire but only having $5.

NO.

No, she's a poser

Well then she ain't to bright now is she?

Well if her chicken/turkey grows in trees then yeah, sure, otherwise no.

no, she's not.

TURKEY AND CHICKEN ARE NOT CONSIDERED RED MEATS. THEY ARE CONSIDERED TO BE POULTRY; THEREFORE, SOME VEGETARIANS EAT THIS. IF THEY ARE TOTAL VEGETARIANS, ABSOLUTELY NO MEATS ARE EATEN, INCLUDING POULTRY.

NO!!! My room mates are the same!! HAHAHHA!!

uhh...I dont think so. But some people say I'm not really a vegetarian because I eat fish. Whatever!

I have been wondering myself because I have a vegan friend who still eaats fish, chicken and turkey...she says that it doesn't count if its white meat? i still don't think that they are a vegan, just someone who doesn't like pork or beef

No!!
How can you even wonder this? A vegetarian does not eat meat. However, Ive told people Im a vegetarian and then Id get asked if I eat chicken. What part of "I dont eat meat" is so hard to figure out?

there are different levels of vegetarian
i believe she would be considered sudo-vegetarian, she does not consume red meat.
Blessings!

Um, no. She's not a vegetarian. Vegetarians don't eat meat. It's not rocket science.

Perhaps she is not eating red meat for health reasons - this does not make her a vegetarian.

Not even in Texas do we consider this to be vegetarian.

My friend is a vegetarian and lives by this rule: If it had a mother, she won't eat it.

Your friend doesn't eat red meat, but she's far from a vegetarian.

Shes not.

Vegetarians refrain from eating any form of killed species.
Vegans refrain from eating any animal products, like milk and cheese , eggs etc.

Some who claim to be vegetarians won't eat any animal with a cloven hoof (cows, pigs) but will eat other meat.
It seems like there's a lot of different types of vegetarians.
IMO, a REAL vegetarian will not eat any meat at all, but they don't all follow that logic.

To each his own.

No she is not . Vegetarians dont eat any meat at all . She is a lier ! Tell her to stop lying !

Vegetarian is by definition a 'herbivore'... nothing carnivorous about that.

She is having an identity crisis I think?

No.

But, "vegetarianism" is not a club where you sign an agreement and follow specific rules. Vegans will not eat or use any animal products. There are 'ovo-lacto' vegetarians who will eat eggs and milk and cheese. I eat fish, but consider myself a vegetarian, sort of - - it's very personal. I haven't had any chicken, beef or related products in 20 years. Generally, vegetarians don't want to be part of the demand that is supplied by cruelty. There is no reason for them to explain to you in detail what their diets are, really, it's just easier to say "I'm a vegetarian" and leave it at that. IMHO.

um..no vegetarian means no meat whatsoever....She just doesn't eat red meat.

I think she is what they call a 'poulo-vegetarian'. Basically, that means she will eat poultry (birds), but no other meat. But that's not really vegetarian, if you ask me. The birds were killed in slaughterhouses just like any other animal that may be eaten.

Sounds more like a poultry-arian than a vegetarian.
xxoo

By definition, a vegetarian is someone who only eats vegetable matter, no meat. She probably just avoids red meat, which would still allow her to eat chicken and turkey, and possibly fish, but would not be a strict vegetarian
