Question....

Hi I don't know much about vegans and vegetarians so this may seem like a dumb question to you but
All I eat are vegetables, fruit, beans, whole wheat bread and seafood. Would I be considered a vegan or vegitarian?
I don't eat any poultry like eggs or chicken (obviously) and I don't eat dairy at all

No, sorry. Seafood (assuming you mean fish, crab, lobster etc. and not seaweeds) is not vegetarian nor vegan because it was once living and is now dead. If you eliminated it from your diet then yes, you would be a vegan! But congrats on not eating dairy, land-flesh and eggs! That's fantastic!

okay thanks! Because I read somewhere that fish with vegetarians was kinda touchy. some eat it some don't and it was kind of a preference. I'm from France and in France they consider people vegetarians if you don't eat red meat, t

You can say you're a pescatarian

Or that you eat a plant-based diet

Or that you eat "mostly" vegetarian

But yeah, that seafood didn't grow on a tree. It was once a sentient creature.

and just so no one like gets mad at me or anything I'm completely aware that pescevegan is an oxymoron. It's a joke
