CevicheCeviche is a hugely popular dish in Central and South America. The basic ingredient is raw fish, cut into bite-size pieces and marinated in the juice of an acidic fruit, salt, and seasonings. The citric acid in the juice changes the texture of the fish, without changing its "raw" taste. Preparation and consumption of ceviche is practically a religion across Latin America. - StewE6

At first this meant non-dairy vegetarian and later the doctrine that man should live without exploiting animals.
