[quote=Anonymous][quote=doodlebug]I think her biggest mistake is calling herself a vegetarian when she eats fish. Um, fish is meat. If she eats fish and no other types of meat then she's a pescatarian, not a vegetarian. That's my pet peeve about anyone who's a tarian of any type. ;)[/quote]

It's easier to just say vegetarian.  For one, pescatarian implies that your primary source of protein is fish.  And there are lots of people who don't really eat much fish/seafood (as in, they don't cook it at home), but will eat seafood in rare instances when eating out because the few vegetarian options don't work for them.

My issue with most vegetarian options at restaurants is that they are heavy on the cheese or they don't really have any protein (think some cheesy pasta dish or the reverse is something with eggplant but no real protein source).  So while they'd prefer to be vegetarian all of the time, they've adapted to eat fish when out with others on an infrequent basis.

The other thing is most people look at you funny when you say pescatarian.  It's easier to say "I'm mostly vegetarian, but I will eat seafood on occasion."
