For a lot of people poultry != meat != fish. *shrug* Yes, I think they are all forms of meat, but a lot of people distinguish between them - even religions. Can't eat meat on friday? That's why you eat fish - it isn't meat. I think people are just malinformed so they equate vegetarianism with not eating meat - but to them that means red and white meats (like beef and pork).
