That might be true for people who hail from certain coastal communities (like Bengal, Orissa, etc.) but more often than not, "Vegetarian" means No eggs, No Fish

- chimeracoder 13y ago> That might be true for people who hail from certain coastal communities (like Bengal, Orissa, etc.) Right, the fish part is mostly in areas where fish is already a staple of the diet. My point was that "vegetarian" for many Indians is similar to "vegan" in that it proscribes eggs (though not always dairy).
