Are Jehovah's Witnesses vegetarians

Answer 1

Yes. The Bible does not prohibit the eating of meat.

Also, even though there were dietary restrictions on the ancient nation of Isreal, such as a prohibition on the eating of pork, Jehovah's Witnesses recognize that those dietary restrictions are not applicable to the Christian congregation, therefore, we do not have any restrictionns on the type of animal that is eaten either, so long as the meat has been properly bled.

As was said before, we do eat meat. however due to one's health and medical reasons some may choose not to eat certain types of meat. and the meat must be properly bled, as there is to be no blood in it.
Anything edible. There are no dietry restrictions imposed on christians apart from the restriction not to consume blood, therefore, apart from ensuring that any meat consumed has been properly bled, (and avoiding blood based foods such as Black pudding - a British English term for sausage made by cooking blood), Jehovah's witnesses make individual personal decisions as to what they eat.

we can eat anything excepting things which contain blood. we eat normal food, and what ever is usually eaten in the country in which one lives in. unless the person has made a personal decision not to eat certain foods, that would be the only time you'll see us not eating something.

The only dietary restriction that Jehovah's Witnesses have is the Bible's command to avoid the consuming of blood. (Act 15:28,29) Therfore, any meat that has not been properly bled, or any foods made from blood would not be eaten by JW's. The only other items that might be avoided by JW's are foods directly associated with holidays or celebrations that we do not participate in, in cases where the food has a direct ceremonial link to the celebration, such as a birthday cake.

Answer 2

Some are, some aren't. It is not a religious requirement.

"Every moving animal that is alive may serve as food for you. As in the case of green vegetation, I do give it all to you. Only flesh with its soul-its blood-you must not eat." - Genesis 9:3, 4.
