Seriously speaking, does someone have an answer to the land animal meat vs fish thing? I'm curious now
It was originally the Latin word "carnis". They invented the fast from meat specifically to mean giving up the best food of, like, beef and chicken. When translated into English, "meat" was the best word they had to refer to the concept of land animal meat.
