Vegetarian - Definition

Probably ranking quite high on the funny and true scale is the following snippet borrowed from the King of Fools:

Vegetarian:
Ancient tribal slang for the village idiot who can't fish, hunt or ride.

A tribal person meeting that definition probably wouldn't possess the skills required of a warrior. This would seem to indicate that an army of vegetarians shouldn't be the first choice to defend the kingdom. On the battlefield, I believe the Bloody Omnivores would have a significant advantage over the Picky Eaters.
