pescetarian
Seafood-but-not-meat dieter
A pescetarian is someone who abstains from meat but eats fish and seafood.
The diet typically includes eggs, dairy, vegetables, and grains alongside seafood.
The term blends the Italian *pesce* (fish) with vegetarian: I'm pescetarian, so I'll have the salmon.
Also spelled pescatarian.
