See this for yourself. 
I hope those red meat lovers don't get pissed at me.  I just wanted to share this.
Watch the video that comes up (has the info)

I love the taste of meat and could care less about whether it's good for me or not.

It's the mental imagery of cattle and pigs being slaughtered that really makes me want to go vegetarian.... like, this tasty piece of meat had a face a few days ago :(

The late Julia Child had a name for this sort, "Nutritional Nervous Nellies."  A properly cooked steak--, i.e. passed through a hot kitchen by a slow butler, and I don't mean the lean stuff to the point of tasteless either, that makes my mouth water, and while you're at it whip up a batch of bearnaise sauce to go with it, maybe a nice chunk of blue cheese too.  You might "exist" longer, but it's not the same as living longer.  A nice shiraz, some souffled potatoes and fresh asparagus would complete this meal. 

Enjoy your balsa wood if you will, just don't think I'm going to eat it.

Man, I am hungry for a steak now...  Bad part is we don't have any steak in the fridge and tomorrow is pay/grocery day.

It would take a rather large man, probably armed, to take my Texas prime beef away from me.

 ;D  I read this, then got in my truck and went to see a co-worker who is also a farmer.  I got my 4lbs of ground beef, 1 roast and 3 t-bones, my usual every 2 weeks.

I eat a lot of red meat, the only thing I do make sure of though is that it's always well done.  That's just a habit though since I worked as a clerk at Health Canada's Laboratory Centre for Disease Control.

I'm with Bear though, it'd take the same thing he said to keep me away from red meat!!!

Like most things, red meat is fine in moderation.  One can't eat chicken and fish every night.

Well ok then guys, have fun with red meat  O0

I don't eat red meat anyway.   I got a taste aversion a few years ago.   I used to love it but hey after
this video I am actually thinking it was a blessing to have the taste aversion.

lol GAslick you too?   Why you are you guys so much in love with red meat?  I love chicken and fish but red meat doesn't taste as good.  Well maybe the red meat I eat isn't good but come on red meat has to be overrated.
Chicken is the best. :)

I like a lot of food.  I eat red meat, chicken, pork, fish....and a lot of vegetables too.  I just like food!

A big ol' hunk of red meat and a beer.....you can't do much better than that to me.

Ok, this Chinese looking chick states the research is on all red meat which includes pork???  Pork is the other white meat!! And what the hell is premature death?? is that like premature ejaculation?? Is their a mature death we should be considering??
So where do they expect the protein our bodies need come from... another pill or water additive? Beef also supplies the necessary creatine our muscles need....
So what does that tell me... I need to be eating MORE red meat because the idiots say not too!!!

SBG Math Guy, I don't think you've had properly cooked red meat. It not overrated... sometimes overpriced but never overrated!!
PS.... ever been to a chicken processing plant?? You might think twice about the bird  ;)  Although it is funny when you pop their heads off and their bodies run around for a while after....  what can I say, raised southern!!  :)

l red meat has to be overrated.


Why does it have to be overrated?  It's all a matter of preference and I daresay that most people won't agree with you.
