Martha Stewart’s pescatarian grandkids won’t skip Thanksgiving turkey: ‘They’re allowed’

Despite quitting meat cold turkey, Martha Stewart’s grandchildren say they’ll only break their pescatarian diets for their granny’s Thanksgiving gobbler.

“They don’t eat meat, but they do eat fish, and they’re allowed to eat one of my turkeys on Thanksgiving, but only on Thanksgiving do they eat anything related to meat,” Stewart, 82, told Business Insider of her pescatarian grandkids.

The “very good kids” — Jude, 12, and Truman, 11 — also offer a helping hand in Stewart’s coveted kitchen, but they’re not the only plant-based foodies in the family.

The celebrity chef’s 58-year-old daughter, Alexis, has been a vegetarian for more than four decades after their family served a lamb from their farm on a platter.

“I tried to pass it off as a pork chop, but she knew the difference,” Stewart admitted to Business Insider. “It didn’t go over very well in our family.”

Despite being surrounded by herbivores, the culinary aficionado swears she’ll never “go vegan.”

“I really don’t enjoy vegan food, and I really love my eggs,” she told the outlet. “But I think I’m over the hill now in terms of eating meat. I have a garden, so I grow almost everything I eat on my farm, even during the winter, and I raise my own chickens for eggs.”

But the “Queen of Thanksgiving” drummed up quite the buzz after she declared her turkey day “canceled,” lamenting being “turkeyed out” after whipping up more than a dozen Butterballs for TV appearances, she said on “The Kelly Clarkson Show.”

Mere days after her uncharacteristic announcement, her tune — or should we say, “gobble” — changed. Thanksgiving, at least for the Stewart household, was back on.

As it turns out, despite canceling her celebrations after guests changed their RSVPs to “no,” she spent this week prepping thirty pies — of the chocolate pecan, pecan and pumpkin varieties — alongside a spread of tarts and a 20-pound “organic, heritage bird” roasted to perfection.
