The mistake is as likely theirs as yours. I've heard there's a subset of
self-described vegetarians who make an exception for fish.

Now, I make the same sort of exception on Fridays, but I'm Catholic, and
eccentricity is expected.

Of course, they're vegetarians, so eccentricity is expected,

"Pesco-vegetarians," a.k.a. "indecisive."

I know someone who describes herself as a vegetarian, but her rule is that she
won't eat "anything with a soft nose." Fish and chicken are fine, but lamb, pork and
beef are out. Ooookay.

Dumbass -

That is a valid exception.

BTW, I'm also an "exceptional" vegetarian. When I don't eat meat I'm a
vegetarian.

thanks,

I'm pretty sure that crosses the line from "vegetarian" to "picky eater."

I try to only eat food that I like the taste of,

Yeah, she's a little unclear on the concept.

Works for me. Of course, trying new stuff can get you into trouble on that. You
don't *have* to finish it, of course.

You must have been thinking of andoulette when you wrote that.

My old rule was that I wouldn't eat anything uglier than I was. My son
and I had an ongoing 'discussion' about whether that excluded crabs
and we finally compromised that I could eat hard shelled, but got a
pass on softshell crab sandwitches...

I haven't yet made the commitment to being a vegetarian but I generally
try to eat animals that are.

Dumbass -

Factory raised chickens, in a small cage for their entire lives w/
their beaks sawed off, is the worst.

It should be illegal. It's not like we don't have too much food as it
is. The problem with diet in this country is the Fatties and we put the
chickens through that sort of life just so food can be cheaper and we
can get even Fatter. Disgusting.

thanks,

Hmm, I suppose that sort of rules out the beef that was fed ground up leftovers
of their own cousin to fatten 'em up.

What about fish?

I completely agree with that. Besides, the free-range chicken tastes better.

No killer whales.

If vegetarians can eat fish, then fish that eat other fish are
vegetarian, and thus okay. However, fish that eat people
appear to be ruled out. I guess Robert was also ruling out
predators that eat people (bear? alligator? bad-tempered
dolphins?)

Getting back to the subject, I certainly feel that RAAM would
be more exciting if it also had predators that the contestants
had to avoid. Wolverines perhaps, or gators. Pity they're not
finishing in Florida.

I said that's what I _try_ to do. I don't always succeed.

And then there's butter and sugar, my old nemesis.

For me, that's a recipe,
