RE: Why I am a vegetarian

in #food7 years ago (edited)

Thank you for providing all of this info. I am pretty blown away by the numbers. I am skeptical lately about the process that the meat goes through to get to my fridge. This is in part because I had my first shore-line fish lunch (Walleye) and it was the best fish I ever ate. I've considered consuming less meat, but come dinner time our main choice is steak or chicken. Why is that? I know that it's absolutely delicious. It's just "the normal" thing these days. I think I eat meat "because I'm used to it". However; fresh meat is unlike any meat I can buy.

I will consider eating less than 18 oz of meat per weak, and I will consider healthier alternatives moving forward. Unfortunately, dropping meat from my diet might not be something I can do. Considering all the processing that takes place when they cut the meat and package it for us, which I have seen many videos about, I do find myself questioning what it is I'm eating and if it's even healthy. This happened to me tonight as I chewed on my steak. I also can say that I enjoyed the salad, so full of flavor, over the steak. There were bacon bits in it though....just can't get away from it.
