You sound like me. I don't eat red meat, but I usually end up eating fish or poultry about once a week. It's hard to explain to some people...I always get the "But why don't you eat red meat if you eat chicken?" or "Are you a vegetarian or something?" I'm with
valkyrie on the vegetarian thing--all this "semi" stuff confuses people. I do not consider myself vegetarian, because I do eat poultry and seafood.
I've been told that the "easiest" (if there is one) way to become a vegetarian is to do it slowly and to start substituting vegetarian foods for the ones you usually eat, like soy milk instead of milk. It sounds gross, but it's actually pretty good.
Oh, and pork falls under the category of red meat, according to my food science text.
