A lot of very bad experiences where I've been shamed for being an omnivore or someone who doesn't solely eat fish when I'm not eating vegetables and faced a lot of recruitment for this or that diet trend (one instance involved an hour long talk at work from a senior coworker which was deeply uncomfortable and included references to child abuse). I'm also really not interested in bloggers who solely/mostly post about it, similar to diet bloggers, since a lot of folks who are very big about being vegan/vegetarian/pescatarian and post about it bake in food shame into their wording, and as someone who's struggled a lot with diet culture and food shame, that is not fun for me. Also sometimes I just talk about eating meat that isn't fish cause I like it/talk about my own cooking and while I'm sure plenty of folks are chill with it even if they don't eat it, I know that's not comfortable for a lot of those folks anyway.
