2. This is not really a question you want to post in the lounge.
We have people on each side of the debate who are...passionate about their beliefs. This is just a really bad can worms to open...

4. It's sort of a copycat thread...
...there's a bit of a ruckus going on regarding "healthy lifestyles" and such, so this poll was just my way of taking a lit match to the spilled gas...

:evilgrin:

6. As often as you can track it...
and catch it and rip it apart with just your hands and teeth, ripping flesh, sinew and muscle from the quivering carcass as the scavenger vultures circle overhead, anxious for what you might not be able to drag back to your young.

In other words, a few times a week, but NEVER eat anything bigger than your head.

8. Never. I stopped when I was about 15 and saw a truck full of cattle going by.
Those big, brown, innocent eyes... I couldn't do it anymore. :cry:

11. Depends on your tolerance for environmental degradation and colo-rectal cancer.
Myself, I'm not a fan of global warming OR ass cancer, I'd rather have no part of either, so I don't eat that shit.

15. What did ass cancer ever do to you?!
:rofl: :hug:

I'm a dirty omnivore, but I confine red meat consumption to the free range, non-frankenfooded variety of moo cow.

14. I limit my red meat to 1 or 2x/month
I eat mostly chicken, fish, and some pork.

16. Why ruin a perfectly good burger with egg?
Ewwww.

I like some free range moo cow now and then, sans hormones. I'm an unapologetic omnivore; circle of life, and all that. I'm just not down with factory farming so I try to buy my meat from Trader Joe's.
