Apparently, the term Pescatarian is now in the dictionary, according to our friends over at Fitsugar. 'Pescatarian' describes a vegetarian who eats fish, in case you didn't know. And then there's Flexitarians--people like me who are part-time vegetarians. But it got me thinking: What are the other types of vegetarians?
Here's a short list of some other types of veggies:
- Vegans don't eat any animal products, including dairy and honey
- Fruitarians eat only fruits and vegetables that are classified as fruits
- Lacto-ovo vegetarians stay away from meat but eat eggs and dairy
- Raw/Living foodists eat only raw foods
- Macrobiotics eat only unprocessed foods, but sometimes eat fish.
What 'atarian' are you?

I'm a raw food fruitarian (I eat raw fruit, vegetables, nuts and seeds).
I've cured my colitis on this diet, and I wouldn't consider going back to cooked foods.
If anyone is interested, I've written about my diet here: www.raw-food-health.net
