Rfv-sense "aversion to flesh". It has one citation, but I can't find any others, despite the relatively large (300+) number of Google Books hits for the word. The other sense, "fear of meat", just failed RFV. - -sche (discuss) 02:37, 22 March 2012 (UTC)

Carnophobia is the fear of meat if I judge by bgc results (one among many others). But Robertson says "fear of meat diet".

As for "fear of flesh", it would rather be sarcophobia. — Xavier, 21:40, 22 March 2012 (UTC)

Carnophobes (creaphobes ?), of course.
