Meat tastes wonderful. But.. it is bad for you. Provided you eat your average grocery store meat.

"Fish is good for you...why dont you eat fish?"
Careful now.
Fish that doesnt come from a fish farm is bad for you, because the water on this planet is so polluted now that it gets into the fish. Most fish from fishing boats has high levels of mercury in it.
Nowadays, people tend to think that all these things are so great for them. Back in the day, meat, poultry, and fish were good for you, but now they are pumped full of so much junk that it's creating an array of problems and illnesses within humans.

As long as you are careful about it, and educate yourself, then you'll be fine.
If you don't care about your health, then, well, this doesn't really apply to you. Enjoy your fast food nation.

No.. see.. I'm telling you fact. You aren't processing it.
This has been on the news, it's been in the paper, it's all over. Ask your doctor, he'll tell you the same.

Fish that is not raised in polluted water is yes, VERY good for you.
I use to LOVE tuna, and then my friend told me not to eat so much. When I asked why, since I always thought it was awesome for me, she showed me an artical about high levels of mercury in fish. So I did some research, and asked my doc. There are also many other pollutants. You have to be really really careful with fish nowadays.

You where offending me saying my lil girl looked disturbing...you never explained why..

If you are talking about the left over rib..that had no meat on it just sauce and we took a pic of her sucking off the sweet sauce...then how that can be classed as disturbing I dont know...we couldnt feed her the actual meat...1st of all...she would have choked on it

2..at the time when that pic was taken..she only had two tiny lil bottom teeth...so she couldnt eat or chew anything that was tough...I feed her on mushy food...untill she is able to chew for herself..geeesh she is only 8 months old blink.gif And I was with her the whole time..to watch and make sure she didnt put the whole bone into her mouth...and she only got to suck on the rib (sweet sauce) for 2 mins after the pic was taken (for a laugh) we took it off her again and gave her some juice to drink...I always watch her when she is eating...I have to...I also make sure there is nothing laying around that she can get her hands on that will harm her..cuz babies explore everything through their mouths...thats a fact...this is why all harmful objects are placed out of harms way

I did read it and still think the same. She made the comment about liking bacon and disliking pork, then you came in. I can easily see how that insults her.

Oh, by the way, it's spelt "butting".

Butting... I was just simply adding to the conversation, if I meant malice I would have typed more. Sound like you've heard it before? wink2.gif

So, BM (or anybody else), which do you prefer more; bacon or pork?

Kratos i love both bacon and pork.....I eat a lot of bacon more so than pork, only because it don't take as long to cook and I eat it in my sandwiches yes.gif

I have seen some of you guys post about other meat, that I would love to try...ie - veal...buffalo ...I like to try out new things...I dont think we sell much veal over here, but no harm in looking

Someone once told me there's a difference between Canadian Bacon and Ham. That true?

Cook some rice.
Get a few bonless skinless chicken breasts and cut em up into chunks.
Fry some bacon. Cut bacon into bits.
Fry chicken.
Cook corn, peas... other vegitables you find interesting.

Throw it all together and shovel it into masticating orifice.

Mmmmmmmmmmmm.... I like to add soy sauce to it, just before the rice/chicken is finished cooking.

We cook bacon bits into our burgers, pancakes/waffles, casseroles... steak wrapped in bacon dipped in batter and deep fried...

Ham steak is good too. 1/4" with pineapple rings, juices marinated with allspice or ginger... *drooling* And a marichino on top. My goodness I'm hungry...
