Yeah, unless it is seaweed.

anything that had parents

technically, meat is flesh of mammals, so unless its a dolphin, nope. :)

yes because it came from an animal, but not the fake crab it,s called garbage.

Are you asking as a vegan? or is it just Lent?

yes, it does. If you want to eliminate meat, but still eat seafood, explore being a pescatarian, as opposed to vegetarian. Don't let anyone try to put you in a neat little box. Pescatarian, while still eating a living creature, if it works for you, knock yourself out. I have allergies that make it necessary for me to avoid most things vegetarians eat-like wheat, soy, eggs, etc. I have to consume fish a couple of times a year to get protein. I enjoy mussels,clams and oysters, which have no nervous system or face, therefor, they do not feel pain. Eat whatever works for you

Yes...But for lent it is ok to eat

of course it is. it isn't a fruit or veggie.

Yes, but don't tell the Pope

I believe it is consider fish on the food pyramid. The food pyramid states as following meats, poultry, fish, dry beans, eggs, nuts group seafood would fall under fish

yes ofcourse......

By definition Meat is the flesh of animals as used for food (dictionary)......... Seafood is any fish or shellfish from the sea used for food (dictionary)...........Fish is (loosely) any of various other aquatic animals. (dictionary) ..so Fish are loosely considered animals and meat is the flesh of animals..then seafood can be considered meat ... it is just semantics depending upon what you are counting it for... ..vegetarians do not eat fish or seafood..although there is another term for it .. some say they are vegetarians but in usage as well they are not ... but even if you eat fish and not animals as in mammals it is a good start ..

Yes - It came from an animal!

Yes, & yes......

...look on a food pyramid... Meat is anything though i mean people call the inside of an apple it's meat... But like Chiken is puoltry, and Cow is beef, Seafood is SEAFOOD

Meat is usually considered flesh of mammals

Yes, the flesh of any living edible, is meat.
