Where's the beef?

I eat mostly vegetables for lunch. Let there be meat at breakfast and dinner.
 
I had Pork for breakfast, Beef for dinner and Chicken for supper
w/lots of veggies
 

One thousand scientists support meat as an essential part of diet.
Thats great that vegans can't force meat bans on the general population. Im already incensed with plastic bag bans in supermarkets. I have to pay 10 cenrs for a grocery bag that used to be free. And when i throw it out ( sooner later) its an even BIGGER impact on the landfill, beause it's thicker plastic

Personally, im an omnivore. Ineat dead animals, grass (corn rice and wgeat are all types of grass), roots, nuts, berries, leaves (lettuce and kale) . Most people are unaware that apple trees in america are a non native invasive species. Cows, pigs and chickens too

Are these scientists able to explain why vegetarians arent dying off due to nututional problems? If that was actually happening, we'd notice it, right? Strong evidence?

Yeah I hate that shit too .. especially when you realize too late and there is a ton of stuff to get to the car

Meanwy..most everything purchased is in one form of plastic or another.
 
Interesting, I have read so many times, too much meat would lead to some health issues such as high cholesterol, etc.
The B vitamins in meats (pork) are essential according to the experts.

For fun I used the new Ask Bing AI generated search. Here's a few of the answers given on the topic below.:)

Meat is an important part of our diet because it provides essential nutrients and vitamins that aid in muscle and bone strength, brain health, and healthy weight management. Meat is a valuable source of high biological value protein, iron, vitamin B12 as well as other B complex vitamins, zinc, selenium and phosphorus1. It also provides a wide variety of minerals to support the optimal functioning of your cells and tissues2. However, it is important to note that meat should be consumed in moderation as excessive consumption can lead to health problems3.

There are many healthy vegetarian options that you can include in your diet. Some of these include fruits like apples, bananas, berries, oranges, melons, pears and peaches; vegetables like leafy greens, asparagus, broccoli, tomatoes and carrots; grains like quinoa, barley, buckwheat, rice and oats; legumes like lentils, beans, peas and chickpeas; nuts like almonds, walnuts, cashews and chestnuts; seeds like flaxseed, chia and hemp seeds; and healthy fats like olive oil and avocados1. You can also try substituting meat with extra-firm tofu in your favorite recipes2.
 
For some reason the topic made me think of this oldie. It was a big hit back when I was a teen.
:)
 
Moderation is the key to most everything is life. One of my very favorite meals is a nice big juicy Highland Cattle burger.
You do know Highland beef CATTLE take about 4 months longer to get to market weight and that long, shaggy hair doesn't bode well in the deep south but does very well in upper northern climates

I know a great deal about Highlands. Very self sufficient critters. If you add in rotational crazing it’s a game changer. Have you ever had meat from a Highland? It’s great!
 
We tired having a garden for a few years. Worked so much it was hard to properly care for it.

It's much more work than just going to farmers market and getting the veggies you want, but, can be so much more rewarding, IMO
I've all but given up gardening due to when garden needs most attention it's harvest time and just don't have the time to do both any more as ya'll especially when my garden is 2000 sq ft.

Try a small raised bed garden now that you have more no work time :)

We have done a raised bed and it worked out well. We are lucky as there is a farmers market every Thursday about 5 minutes from our house. And they make a fun time of it, they have live music and beer! It is great…

No, Not that I know of. As kids it was Holstien STEERS from our dairy herd, now raise Red Hereford and Black Baldies, occasional Simmental. Hey it's 2/3 way through calving season now.

Most all breeds are on pasture 5-6 months a year on small farms - not to many feedlots on small farms, including ours but we always supplement with 3-4 lbs of sweet feed/ grain mix daily to keep them trained to come to us. People need to understand a calm, relaxed beef cow makes for much better meat in the end.
