Thinking about giving up meat
 

veggie meat?

I got a bad case of food poising from a salad wrap with no meat in it. You can easily get food poisoning from veggies and fruits.

I've been lucky enough to never have gotten food poisoning which is bizarre given how I'll eat food from street vendors and other high risk places other people avoid.

I've been making deer jerky. Friends have been killing them around here left and right. I love jerky, and how it makes my basement smell when I'm making it.

I don't need to hunt. These guys are getting so much meat they just give it to me.

I'm going to hunt Asher and make stupid burgers.http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ies/tongue.gif

You'll never catch me! I have reflexes like a hippy on acid.

You're talking to a redneck Canadian here Trolly. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ilies/cute.gif

Well, this thread quickly descended into being one of the most revolting ever.

Ewww....this thread has degraded to the point that I am almost sold on becoming a vegetarian.

Hmm...I wonder if I can survive as a vegetarian without eating tofu? I find tofu to be incredibly nasty tasting.

Dis, I know you're hurting in this economy, but have you considered moving from grade F meat to E or above? Also, I understand cooking helps.

I don't think avoiding meat will give you better chances of avoiding food poisoning.

I've never gotten a food poisoning, but you can get it from any other thing just as easily. I guess it's weird, I eat all kinds of stuff, from the street with my hands even abroad in weird smelly places. I don't care. It tastes good. Just eat it. Wash your hands.

Don't do what Pekka does in Mexico. Or drink non-bottled water there either. Otherwise, you will get food poisoning and may get any number of illnesses and worms. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ilies/nono.gif http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ilies/nono.gif

I was a vegetarian for 12 years, I quit last christmas. I wasn't a particulary healthy vegetarian, too much fat and carbs. Eventually I got tired of all the beans, tofu and quorn, now I gorge myself in meat http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ies/yumyum.gif

I haven't stole any of this years hunt yet, though hopefully will when I'm back home over christmas. I do have some moose steak in the freezer that I'll have to pull out soon now that I've thought about it.

I could never go through with giving up meat, its just way too good. We had some tenderloin (backstrap) with potatoes and whole kernel corn and gravy tonight

Awesome, Venisonhttp://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/biggrin.gif

I wasn't too fond of it either, but you get used to it after a while, especially in combination with some good sauce and other ingredients it's not so repulsive, and sometimes even really tasty http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ilies/wink.gif It's a wonder the world's tofu manufacturors haven't snatched you up as a spokesperson.

Still, as a vegetarian, I don't eat it very often. I eat a lot of carbs, lots and lots actually. Lots of dairy products (cheese in particular)too. And beans are what you need: some have up to 25% protein iirc.

Giving up meat isn't so hard. Well, not for me anyway. I doubt you've ever had some really good meat in Belgium. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/smile.gif
