Same reason anybody with the least amount of soul doesn't eat dog or cat. We, as a culture, consider these companion animals.Good question. While you're contemplating it, maybe you can come up with a reason why it is OK to eat squirrel, beaver and rabbit (rodents), beef, pigs, sheep and goats, and moose, deer and elk, but it is expressly prohibited in the US to eat horse? I've never had it, but I don't understand why it is taboo.
Apparently you've never been hungry. Koreans, Vietnamese and Chinese eat dogs and cats. Some eat rats. Your companion animal argument doesn't hold water.Same reason anybody with the least amount of soul doesn't eat dog or cat. We, as a culture, consider these companion animals.
That is the majority opinion. But they are forbidden I'm the scriptures. And that is a remnant of our Israelite past.
Ugh. I hated how my mom always made us eat fish on fridays.Catholic church.

Because vegans like to eat it.To me any flesh of an animal is considered meat and I tried amazing salmon for dinner at Texas Roadhouse tonight and this discussion came up. Why is food like beef, pork, and chicken considered meat when fish is not?
Well i figured thats why its not considered a meat, they must like it.Seriously?
So it is.Yeah because during Lent a lot of fast food restaurants serve fish that wouldn't regularly be selling it.
'm not sure who doesn't consider fish a meat.
