xXxpinky615xXx answered Sunday August 14 2005, 11:12 pm: Yes, chicken is meat. It's not RED meat though, and it's poultry. And if you've a veggitarian, it doesn't matter if you eat chicken or not. If you want to eat chicken, go for it. Eat the chicken. There are many different kinds of veggitarians:
Ones that eat NO meat: Steak, pork, chicken NOTHING but will eat sea food.
Ones that eat NO meat/seafood.
Ones that eat No meat, but eat chicken AND seafood
Ones that eat NO meat will eat chicken, but no seafood.
Ones that will eat NOTHING that comes from an animal: No eggs, butter, milk, dairy products in general- Those are Vegans.
bsaylor23 answered Sunday August 14 2005, 10:36 pm: Well Chicken is Poultry which means a bird and it is technically a meat (a white meat) but many vegetarians do eat white meat (which includes: Turkey, chickhen, fish and other sea food) as a healty source of protein. These people call them selves "white meat" Vegetarians. The idea is to not eat mammals and four legged animals. And if you decide to not eat white meat you should take protein supplements so that you body can function properly. I recommed soy bugers (i like them) with Ketchup, mustard and lettuce.

Sporkster answered Sunday August 14 2005, 10:04 pm: Anything that you eat that comes from cooked or raw animal tissue is considered meat. So yes, chicken is considered a poultry meat. Poultry just means "bird." Goose, duck, chicken, dove, quail, etc. are all types of poultry.
You could become a semi-vegetarian and eat chicken and fish as well, since those are quite healthy for you.
Also, just an off-topic suggestion--make sure you get lots of protein in your diet that you'll lose from not eating red meats. Eat plenty of beans, or prehaps take a protein vitamin.
x0blu3eyedbeautyx0 answered Sunday August 14 2005, 9:48 pm: Ok wow I'm just like you..so I'm the perfect person to ask this quetsion...a vegatarian is someone who doesnt eat any meat including chicken....yes chicken is considered meat but not red meat. I only eat chicken and turkey because I consider myself a mamaltarian...i dont eat mammals..i recommend this because you need protein and chicken has it so your kinda like half a vegatarian l0l!!

cookierat123 answered Sunday August 14 2005, 9:47 pm: yes chicken is considered a meat and vegitarians dont eat chicken. but i strongly sugest that you start off with not eating cows or something. then after awhile stop eating cows and pigs. and so on and so fourth. because wat usualy happens is your gonna quit right away. so just work your way on up. hope it helped
