Ladies, and Gentelmen, Boy and Girls, Children of all ages, we are people. we are complex. we need food. we need meat. meat is good. it helps us function it helps give us minerals we cant get from plats because well plants dont have all the minerals. and yet some among us belive we shoudlnt eat meat. they belive that meat isharmful for u. they say that every piece of meat u see has come from a place where all animals have been beaten and forced to eat steroids. THEY BLAME AMERICA BEING FAT ON US EATING ANIMALS. yet there are many ways to get meat that hasnt been form animls suffering. but they refuse to belive it. so now tell me why u eat meat and tell me why u just love that big steak and chicken and tell me why u think itsm ore natural to eat meat thne to fight over food with a rabbit. i say kille the rabbit cook him and put it in the salad because meat is good. (no im not some crazed kill all animals and eat them guy i jsutl ike meat and i know most f u do too)

I agree!

Steak is good and tasty and I love it prepared cooked, but rare. Rare enough so when ya stick your fork in it, the blood and juices comes pouring out so ya can mix it in with your mashed potatoes!

Really, if you think we shouldn't eat meat, then don't. You'll be saving more steak for me!

You can have a perfectly healthy diet without meat; fruits, nuts and vegetables contain all of the vital vitamins, minerals and the protein that you need.

um i belive u have ur thread that meat eaters were asked not to post in so you can have your own unintrupeted converstaion why dont u allow us the same?

I eat meat because I like it.. and I am healthy.

My yearly check-up at the doctor showed that my weight is good (actaully lost a few lbs. this year)... cholesterol is great, blood pressure is great.

I eat a balanced diet of all the food groups. I do eat meat, veggies, dairy and fruit... and sometimes even reward myself with something sweet.

I don't feel guilty for eating meat. I was raised with hunters and have actually killed two deer (which I gave to a poor family that really needed the meat for the winter).

I guess it is all in one's personal beliefs and convictions, one's personal likes and dislikes.

Hey.. to each his own!

I eat meat because it tastes good, in some cases helps keep populations in control (yes, I eat bambi! ) and it's my choice.

I'm healthy, I exercise and run. I also eat veggies, fruits and grains to keep a balanced diet. That's my choice and if you don't like it, I'm sure you'll get over it.

If you want to eat meat, I don't see a problem with it.

Sorry, I'm not a part of the "vegetarian club", I haven't even replied in any topics similar to this. I'm just correcting you where you're wrong.

oh for god sakes will you people stop it!! im talking to both vegetarians and meat eaters. there are allredy three tipics on the same thing. just pick one tipic and stick with it.

Maybe I don't want to post on the other two and I just want to post here....

Or maybe I'll post on all three!

Ya got a problem with that?

Humans are omnivores, and though it may vary from person to person--I have found that a diet consisting of meat as well as vegetables make me function the best. Not to forget that meat tastes great, and is healthy, provided that you stay away from the processed stuff and don't overdo the red meat.

Nothing like a good, medium beef occationally though

I wholly agree...

I just eat meat and veg...but real meat not the crap you get in the likes of mAC DOnalds or Burger King!!! processed crap!!


However red meat from what my doc tell me ...too much of it over the years can cause cancer.(along with ciggys ect).thats coming from my own doctor...and yes I have bowel cancer...I did used to eat lots and lots of red meat....I have cut down on it now though



Still like the odd steak now and again...and tender chicken...and appart from tuna...I like crispy bacon with lettuce and salad cream yummy


Meduim rare is much nicer with some graded cheese on top..with the fat left on...and I make my cream potatoes with some real cream , butter and cream cheese..its nicer

but since I have bowel cancer I am going to try out the herbal treatments and eat healthy..and only allow myself a lil meat now and again

LOL you have a point..there is a topic on it...

I eat meat just to make vegans unhappy.

No you dont LOL you are only saying that to get on a few vegans nerves here on this board LOL


You eat meat cuz..................you like it

go on admit it LOL

Well. I like it too. I actually just had a half pound burger. It was incredible.

I wont eat a burger unless it was real meat...not processed crap...


BM burger

Steak, cheese, mushrooms, a hint of lettuce, slice of bacon and blue cheese dressing...now thats a BM burger

Bacon.... mmmmmmmm.......

Bacon makes everythng taste better. I just love pig meat.lol

Bacon and pork all come from the same animal...but a lot of people love pork but hate bacon

I like both

Sorry you don't need meat, everything you need can come from not animal sources easily. And Animal sources of food have many health issues associated with them.

How do my fellow meat eaters feel about eating veal?

I've been called everything under the sun for eating a veal steak sandwich. I don't agree with the treatment but can't argue with the flavor.

i dont like veal cause i saw the baby cows one time i almsot cried. i dont care if other people eat it though. and Avinash_Tyagi u have ur thread we hav our eat and let eat

Tastes good

I only eat Lamb and Chicken. You need them for lots of Indian curries and I couldnt not cook without em!! It would kill me!

But I dont eat any other meats.

Other than vegetables, masalas/kourmas/"curries", and bread, they are staples of Indian cuisine (mutton and chicken)

Exactly!

Interesting thread...To each his own.....Needing meat is a myth and eating meat is a choice........of course your own choice but choice none the less...lol

Meats can tend to inflame or swell your joints. Veganism (oats, rices, grains, beans) is much healthier source of food and protien.

But fast food is SOO easy and cheap. Mshyts and Burger Queen are right around the corner .

How is it a choice Sheri?? I am not trying to be rude here far from it LOL but I just would like to know as to how you see it as just a choice???

Reason being is my lil Becky loves mince meat with gravy ...she cant get enough of it, she has even cried out for her dads baby back ribs and had herself a good time chewing on it.....to me she didnt make the choice...it was her taste buds that made the choice...after all she is just over 8 months old...and bare in mind Becky loves her potatoes with mixed veg...and she will eat a lil fruit and loves to drink water...she is very healthy

She cried out for the left over ribs (she must of thought they smelt good)



And that was it..that was the 1st time I saw her get a taste for meat and she wasnt going to part with that rib...funny thing was...there was nothing on it for her to bite off LOL we didnt want her to choke!!!

[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v375/gdk_foci/Is_that_another_tasty_stick_I_See.jpg[img]
I had to stay close in case she choked on it...but she didnt....now we just mix it in with the rest of her food...

I didnt make it my choice either Sheri....I just happen to like it...not all meat though just some...but it's like anything you eat..if your taste buds dont like it and your tummy disagrees with it then you wont eat it...simple as that...and thats not you personally making that choice...its your body.....do you see what I am trying to say? However it IS your choice later on in life whether to eat meat or not..that I will agree with



I cant say I have ever tried veal...never actually!!!

^ theres some thing disturbing about that picture.......

lol, wuts that?

May not have a choice in Having impulses or desires, but have a choice to Act on them or not. Rule impulse/desire or be ruled by impulse/desire. Same applies to sex arguments and other things.

Edit: Oh and Veal! I haven't had it in a long time, because of the "cruelty" factor. Tasted Great from what I remember... Veal Parmesan mmmmmmmm..... When I was like 8 or 9 it's all I wanted from tavern on the green.

Do tell BM here what is so freaking disturbing about a pic of her child?? Because there is nothing disturbing about my child....got that? so if there was a pic of her eating a carrot you would think OHH CUTE!!!

I said it isnt a mere choice...its to do with your taste buds if they like it or not...you yourself personally ....ohhh bacon even if my taste buds dont like it I am going to eat it anyway...this is what I was trying to tell Sheri

You mean like if you're standing in the sun on a 100 degree day, you're going to get hot wether you like it or not? It's what your body does. Like that?

I can agree with that... I didn't choose to like some things/desires I have... only say my choice to act on them or not. I think I understand what you're saying.

I'm going to see if I can find some veal out here in dry as a bone Tom Green County Texas. Probably somewhere in Angelo there's Something...

I dunno if they sell veal over here...I must check that out

I've tried it before , not my favourite, i'd much rather a buffalo steak. I don't really care about the treatment.

Didn't South Park have an episode about eating veal?



No, because you like it, unhappy vegans is just a nice addition.


I eat meat extensively. Infact I was just eating some beef jerky. I eat beef, pork, chicken, turkey, deer and buffalo. I don't eat fish but I do eat some seafood like crabs and shrimp ( I even tasted squid). I especially like steak.

I eat meat because it tastes good, I hunt (have to eat your kill ), and I support my province's agricullture (especially after the mad cow scare) and I am perfectly healthy.

I havent tried deer or buffalo...does it taste as good as steak?? You say you hunt...but you didnt mention ducks....have you eaten a duck before?? Personally even though they are greasy and not the same amount of meat on them as you would get on a chicken...duck by far is much much better..so if you havent tried it...you must

Fish is good for you...why dont you eat fish?

One of the best home remidies for a bad dose of the cold or flu is a bowl of home made chicken soup and it does perk you right up I took some today cuz I was loaded with the cold!!!

Buffalo steak would be great if it was more wide spread and cheaper. It's leaner and healthier for you and it has a rich flavor that makes you drool.

They did.

Cartman: What did I tell you, Stan! We save some baby cows from being eaten, and now we're no good dirty God---- hippies!



Squid? It's so rubbery. It's like chewing a superball.

I eat pretty much all kinds of meat... beef, chicken, pork, turkey, venison (deer), fish.

I have tried duck, alligator, frog legs, turtle, rattle snake, squirrel, and rabbit.

I love sushi!!!

But I also love my veggies. I have a very good friend (some of you might remember Amby)... and he is vegetarian... and out of respect for him, I have decided not to ever eat veal again, which it has been years since I have eaten it, but I don't remember it being something that I can't live without.

lol she loves that barbeque sauce eh???? the taste buds love sugar....lol......

Well it did taste sweet

There is a large buffalo farm near where I live so I can get it quite cheap. I only tried squid once and I didn't like it much (I got tricked into eating it ).

yea buffalo is awsome i had ostrich once not bad. i love squid of man i get it when ever i can. and no one had mentionded jerky yet i love some good jerky, deer, cow, turkey its all so good

Jerky is awsome. Same with sausage and pepperoni sticks.

The local butcher shop has some of the best jerky in the world. They use all these special spices and such. *drools*

If you are a person with religion and a meat eater, you are following the bible:

Genesis 9:3
Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.

Y'all talking about veal...made it sound good....must try it!!!! I have to LOL

hehehe... Green Herb

Have had rattlesnake, buffalo, alligator, ostrich, various insects...

For some reason I can't stand fish. It's the only thing that makes me want to puke just from the smell. I don't understand it, I TRY to like it... just doesn't work for me.

Tuna (as long as it has dolphin in it too ) smothered with mayo or in a salad I can do, but every other salmon steak, catfish, bass... just can't do it.

ohm an one time me and two of my cousins and my uncle caught a 315 pound threasher shark in long island. omg that thing tasted amazing and im never swimming in long island again. that shark was monsterous. 315 pounds!!!!!!
