While pollo specifically means chicken in both Spanish and in Italian (with pollame meaning poultry in general in Italian), pollotarians are known to incorporate different forms of poultry, like duck and turkey in their diet.[3] Pollotarians may also eat dairy products.[4] The term "pollo-vegetarian" was first used in nutritional textbooks in the 1980s to describe a semi-vegetarian diet that incorporates poultry.[5][6][7] Historian Rod Preece describes pollotarians as "those who refrain from mammals but are willing to eat the flesh of birds notably chickens."[8]

Examples

edit

Chauncey Depew was a pollotarian. In a 1925 interview aged 90, Depew stated that "For thirty years the only meat I've eaten has been poultry".[9] Matt Damon lost weight for the movie Courage Under Fire by sticking to a chicken only diet.[10] Adam Driver ate only one full rotisserie chicken and six eggs a day along with running to maintain his fitness during his days in Julliard. [11][12][13] Indian actor and star Shah Rukh Khan as well as Emraan Hashmi are well-known for their chicken diet.[14][15][16]
