In France, fish isn't usually considered "meat" (viande).

In my child's school, there are only three dietary choices for the kids who eat at the canteen:

* No pork / sans porc (for the muslim or jewish children)

* No meat / sans viande (but there's still fish!)

* Everything

Becoming vegetarian caused my French-Canadian grandmother some dismay. She asked me what I wanted for dinner. I said "no meat" and she replied "ok, we'll eat chicken." I was like, "oh, uh, no animals" and she said "fine, we'll have fish." I finally had to say "ONLY VEGETABLES." Her response was "don't you feel weak all the time?"

Once I brought my favorite tofu to my grandmother so she can try it. She reacted with "I'm against tofu". She's agains basically anything culturally imported after here birth, no problems with potatoes, tomatoes and corn indeed.

If you eat only vegetables then you are vegan, not vegetarian.

But the film mentioned "if you didn't you eat everyone", it wasn't talking about meat.

"Everyone" can reasonably be understood to only apply to "people/animals like those present here"

If we're pedantic on the phrasing, the wolf could have already satisfied the demand by keeping a meat-based diet that simply excluded hedgehogs. Then he wouldn't eat everyone, just those who aren't a hedgehog. But the spirit of the complaint was clearly "everyone here is running away because they are personally afraid of being eaten". Which only included mammals and maybe some birds

Well, France is just incorrect on that one.
