Was Steve Jobs not a vegetarian?

I remember reading somewhere that he was urged by his doctor to eat meat after his illness. And his family gave up being vegan as well.

Pescetarian, last time I checked Wikipedia. A Ctrl+F no longer yields this info, however, so I might be misremembering.

He kept switching between all-fruit, vegan and pescetarian diets. His autobiography goes into it quite a bit.

s/auto// very unfortunately!

Isaacson may have done the best job possible under the circumstances (authorized and rushed to publication), but I was disappointed.

Becoming Steve Jobs was a better book from what I recall. No talking to Steve, but gave a more fair look at much of the business stuff he was involved in. I liked it more.

I really liked Small Fry.

It’s written by his daughter and it’s more about her life and their relationship than his, but I think that’s the reason it’s really good.
