List of fictional vegetarian characters

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of fictional characters that either self-identify asvegetarianor have been identified by outside parties to be vegetarian. Note that for the sake of simplicity, characters may also be vegan as well, as long as it stated that they do not eatmeat.

Analysis and reception of characters[edit]

Some scholars have argued thatmass mediaserves as a "source of information for individuals" interested in vegetarianism orveganism,[1]while there are "increasing social sanctions against eating meat."[2][3]Even so, there are lingeringstereotypesof vegans and vegetarians in the same media,[4][5][6]with journalistFarhad Manjoowriting in August 2019 that it is "still widely acceptable to make fun of vegans." Manjoo felt that vegetarian and vegan characters are often portrayed negatively, such as being "smug" and "annoying" which leads tovegaphobiaand encourages meat-eaters to mock and provoke those who do not eat meat.[7]Some writers, such as John L. Cunningham, editor of the Vegetarian Resource Group's newsletter, have argued for "more sympathetic vegetarian characters in the mass media".[8]

Criteria for inclusion[edit]

  • Listed characters are eitherprotagonistsandrecurring characters.
  • Characters must come from somewhat well-known media, as opposed to obscure or indie media.
  • Animal characters (herbivores) are, for the most part with some exceptions, excluded from this list, especially if it is not actually stated that they do not eat meat.

The names are organized Alpha betically by surname (i.e. last name), or by single name if the character does not have a surname. If more than two characters are in one entry, the last name of the first character is used.
