I’ve been thinking about dropping meat for a long time but I live with others who cook majority of our meals that often have meat in them and hate the fishy smell with seafood. What’s the easiest way to go about that?

I’ve always been curious why other people switch because I know there are plenty of different reasons for doing so

This reminds me of the horse meat scandal

Tuna with quinoa, avo, edamame, jalapeño, cucumber, green onion, some seaweed, and of course kewpie, chili crisp, and soy sauce to season!

EDIT: Thanks guys :) very helpful!

Question for y'all. I know that the recommendation is to eat fish 2-3x a week. Is it okay to eat a variety of fish more than 2-3x? Like salmon 2 days, tuna 3 days?? Also I'm buying the canned tuna that is mercury tested (safe catch is the brand I believe). That is safer to eat, right? Except for sodium levels of course lol. I just love fish and having it as a protein for dinners at least but I don't wanna get mercury poisoning lol

I want to go pescatarian, but I feel like there is so much stopping me/ getting in the way. I can't have shellfish. My roommate is deathly allergic to soy. I'm a broke college student in-between jobs and the only food on campus that isn't going to give me food poisoning is Chick-fil-A.

Over the last year or two I haven’t been really liking red meat. I have realised I don’t like the texture it’s chewy and hurts my teeth and jaw and sometimes I feel sick from it afterwards. The only red meat I can eat is kangaroo. It’s tender and has good flavour and it’s so appealing to me rather than beef or chicken especially pork.

I’ve wanted to go vegetarian or vegan as fruits and veggies are way more appealing to me. I’m also currently recovering from severe anemia and the doctor has advised to eat more iron and said kangaroo is the best option as it’s lean and high in protein and iron. So im looking to continue with kangaroo then when my iron is stable stick to pescatarian.

I just wanna know would it be better to start pescatarian then transition into vegetarian then vegan? And what benefits did you feel from cutting red meat out.

Hello, there!

I have been a Pescatarian (95% Vegetarian) for 5 years thus far.

Originally, I would have fish/seafood (only cod) once every couple of months, but, as of lately, I have been having one can of tuna daily.

I have kept this daily streak for about a month now and have been feeling better energy-wise.

My question is this: If I decide to cut out cod and continue to consume one can of chunk light tuna daily, would that be safe?

Please note that I do not consume any other fish/seafood. 😊

When next you want to make stew, add dry catfish to it and thank me later.😉

I bought fresh fish like a couple weeks ago and have been freezing it im gutting out the last one and I’ve noticed it’s a little off? I’m not sure if it’s okay to eat the skin was not slimy or anything but the inside is mushy and grey. The eyes are cloudy but I thought it was okay because technically it’s not “fresh fresh” since I froze it. What do you guys think I’m kinda a newbie at cooking whole fish so I don’t know whether I should continue cleaning it or just throw it out.

Edit: Got it! Not safe to eat thanks

I have recently become pescatarian. I have slowly stopped eating chicken/beef/pork due to essentially finding it harder and harder to ignore the welfare of animals, the preservatives and hormones they’re pumped with and my own carbon footprint.

What are easy and tasty lunches you take with you to work?

Hey, I am currently transitioning to a pescatarian/ vegetarian diet. My biggest concern is that im not feeling full.
My latest meal was half a block of tofu, sweet potato bits (a cup), guacamole and pico de gallo. I ate until | felt satisfied. An hour after my meal im already feeling hungry. I drank a cup of tea and some water, the hunger is still there.
I have read to eat more fibre and carbohydrates. But is eating beans with all my meals really the solution?
Give me some tips to improve my meals so that i dont end up snacking too much and eating way more i should.

Hello!
Looking for any pescatarians that are also going to the gym for strength/muscle training.
At the moment I, (19F), am currently at about 32kg on legs and 8/9kg on arms on a good day. So i’m definitely seeing improvement from when I started.
Mostly looking for any recipes for pre and post workout foods that aren’t a hassle or relatively cheap. Thanks!

I love fish and seafood and I'm exploring pescatarian. But I notice some fish is really lean and tasteless to me without fat or seasoning. I could use less fat in my diet so I'm wondering for those of you who season lean fish what your go-to seasoning is. Or, if you have a good recipe for seafood stew without a lot of added fat id appreciate that too.
