Pescatrarian

In an earlier episode, Martha and Grant discussed what to call a person who doesn’t eat fish. A listener calls with another suggestion: pescatrarian, from the Latin word that means “fish.” This is part of a complete episode.

Transcript of “Pescatrarian”

Grant, I’m looking at our email.

We got one from Danielle Stockley, who’s in New York City, and she wanted to offer a suggestion for the caller who was seeking a name for someone who doesn’t eat fish.

Remember that? Who eats everything else but not fish?

We suggested non-pescatarian. She suggests pescatrarian.

I like that a lot better. And it sounds nice. It’s got a rhythm.

Yeah, and it’s, you know, contrary to eating fish. Pescatrarian.
