What do you think of the term "vegetarian-inclined"?

Veggies in a basketA press release for the the just-released "Vegetarianism in America" study, published by Vegetarian Times, states that that 3.2 percent of U.S. adults, or 7.3 million people, follow a vegetarian-based diet. But that's not all - 10 percent of U.S. adults, or 22.8 million people, say they largely follow a vegetarian-inclined diet.

The Accidental Hedonist blog put in their two cents about the term vegetarian-inclined: "Let's be clear - there's already a word for someone who is 'vegetarian-inclined'. It's called an 'omnivore'."

Do you think there is such a thing as a vegetarian-inclined diet? Should there be a corresponding term for people who eat mostly meat?
