But, yes, Daniel and his companions were vegetarian.
Are you sure they were vegetarian?
Notice what he states in Daniel 10:1-3. I am quoting it in the KJV:
10 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a message was revealed to Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar. The message was true, but the appointed time was long; and he understood the message, and had understanding of the vision. 2 In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three full weeks. 3 I ate no pleasant food, no meat or wine came into my mouth, nor did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.
Now, if I told you, "Hey, I ate no fish for three-weeks". What would you infer that was part of my diet before the three-weeks (however frequent)? You would conclude that I ate fish. I don't think because of the account of Daniel chapter 1 that one can conclude that he was vegetation. I think they mainly followed that diet for a period.
What say you?
