Moosewood Restaurant Cookbooks don't they claim to be vegetarian?

[Guest guest]

I have

Moosewood Restaurant Celebrates and also Moosewood Restaurant Restaurant Simple

Meals. They claim to be

vegetarian cookbooks, yet they have seafood recipes. Does anyone know why?

I was disappointed when I saw salmon spread, flounder with lemon herb butter

etc.

I think they are most of them are vegetarian, but the collective

evolves over time so sometimes it's " mostly veg " ... with the emphasis

on natural and organic?

I'm not familiar with these books, but most of the vegetarians I know still eat

fish - it's only the vegans that don't. In fact a lot of the vegetarian books I

have recently purchased contain fish/shellfish even though I will never use

them. Would be so much better if they issued them in their own books!

What? Maybe this is just my definition but

if they eat fish, they're not vegetarians.

Wait, Merriam-Webster:

" veg·e·tar·i·an : one who believes in or practices

vegetarianism "

" veg·e·tar·i·an·ism: the theory or practice of living

on a diet made up of vegetables, fruits, grains, nuts,

and sometimes eggs or dairy products "

 

I don't see fish there.

--- I think Amy might be right : ). I read the intros in 4 of the

Moosewood cookbooks I have and none really claim to be " vegetarian "

except the ones by Mollie Katzen. I think because " just fish " is

included in the Moosewood Collective cookbooks it gets lumped into the

vegetarian category at bookstores, etc. If I had a dollar for everyone

that assumed I ate fish because I was a vegetarian, I could retire in

style : ). I really enjoy the Moosewood recipes so I just skip the

seafood chapter entirely. take care : ).....

That's why people always seem to ask vegetarians, " oh, you still eat

fish, right? " (and sometimes they add in chicken, thinking that's not

meat, either). There is a " proper " name for only fish eaters;

pescatarians.
