I am sure we have some vegetarians among us, but those who are non-vegs and relish their dishes, which would be your choice?

And does your particular choice have a favorite dish too?

I have always been partial to chicken. Especially the way its made around these parts. Not exactly biryani or curried, but with plenty of onion/garlic/ginger paste-gravy, with powdered traditional spices mixed into it. Takes around 30 mins to prepare, but boy...does it melt in the mouth!

I like beef, fowl, pork & fish. I voted for fish cuz I do love it, being a Northwesterner. The word "fish" covers a lot of territory- from cod, haddock, halibut, snapper, samon, tuna to clams, scallops and much more. You can have it raw, smoked, dried and fixed in innumerable ways. It's healthy and it's brain food.

Lamb.
Served roasted yet rare, Stabbed and stuffed with garlic, I usually like to make a dryrub from cumin, salt, dried rosemary and cracked pepper.
Pretty simple but one of my favourite things.

I'd have to say a close second is crocodile. Very nice.
I'll just lightly pan fry mine in a little oil, oregano lemon and pepper.

I don't eat red meat very often. Chicken is what I eat the most of.

Chicken, no question.

Also, I think Bacon should have been included, because it's sooooooooo much better and different to pork.

We rarely eat beef because of the occasional foot and mouth threat, and so all of our mince is usually Quorn.

Out of all those the only ones I eat are the fruit of the sea... And though there are many delicous fish out there, I would choose prawns or Lobster or mostly any crayfish over them... Particulary a Murray Cray... which is a fresh water Crayfish from Australia..

Steak. As rare as possible. I want it mooing.

I am also quite partial to duck. mmmmmmmmm duck.

You mean, peking duck?
I'd usually go that with a spicier green like shallots/spring onion, maybe some very fine slices of ginger and orange cooked into the hoisin as a personal touch, but...cucumber eh?
I suppose it would counter the oil nicely...hm

01-04-2009, 06:55 AM
You boys are making me salivate...

Or you can have duck with cherry sauce or a port wine gravy... Those two compliment the richness of duck quite nicely. Let it melt in your mouth...

Oh yes! I had some Peking duck not too long ago, and it wass reely reely good. (And it really, really was.) I think if I had to eat a bird, a duck'd probably be it. Not sure what my answer would be to the thread question, though.

I got that a few nights back, but it was vegetarian duck made from Gluten... Some sweet and sour Gluten and the special King Prawn...


Tonight we went out for dinner, I got a salt and pepper crab with a peanut and Lychee salad followed by a fish supper...

I've tried veal before (Red, not white). It was actually pretty good. Nice and succulent. Rabbit's okay. You get a lot of bones but not much meat, which gets annoying. The next meats I want to try are Frog, Horse and snail, all of which can be bought in France.

That's what got me started. To me eating meat is a selfish flaw of the human condition, just because it tastes good doesn't make it right. But I feel like a hypocrite because I eat and drink small amounts of cheese and milk... that's something I'll work on changing during the year.

Just look at our teeth, we're clearly built to be omnivores.

Actually, that's developed over time. We started off with teeth suited to herbivores. And look at the appendix, something to do with eating grass and other things like that.

But I still eat meat because me stopping won't do anything. And if I don't eat the meat, either someone else will or it will be wasted, and in the case of the latter would mean that the animals died for no reason.

And the choice to eat meat is better than other choices humans make. Eating meat, in the right amounts, is beneficial to humans. Smoking and other things like that aren't.

we have a lot of things built into us - physical and instinctual - that are clearly outmoded now - as a result in our evolution from the dawn of man to the present.

all it would take to have these teeth change would be centuries of not eating meat... another evolution..

we are always changing to suit our environment.

we dont need meat to survive - we need protein. that can be found elsewhere.

i just cant help wondering what makes us better than the animals we kill.
and as a race we dont eat tu survive - we're generally gluttons - eating far more than we need - at least in north america...

i dont know any other animals that do that - except maybe beagles.

ferretchucker
01-07-2009, 07:08 AM
We do it because we can, and because of our intelligence and resources, gathering food is easier. I'm sure if animals could get food as easily as us, they would be gluttons.

You don't need hundreds of DVDs, multiple televisions, or even a decent size house to survive either. It's about quality of life, if you think being a vegetarian will enhance the quality of you life... GREAT! I enjoy eating meat and don't think I'll ever stop. As far as the appendix goes, all of the potential reasons for the existence of it are theoretical. As far as teeth go, if our teeth started out as herbivore teeth and developed over time to be suited to eat meat then we must have needed that "evolution" for some reason. Anyway, it's been suggestion (by vegetarian groups that must push for everybody to join them) that humans should be herbivores because of their physiology (http://www.goveg.com/naturalhumandiet_physiology.asp) but most of the arguments have a counter-point. Do whatever you think you should to have a healthy, happy life folks...

Dogs can be gluttonous, so can fish, and cats... anything domesticated really.


I love beef.

You make good points. I'm pro eating meat.

The teeth thing is fair enough too. Evolution rejects anything doesn't work, and if it rejected herbivore teeth, well...

And that last points goes back to what I said earlier. Anything that has access to the food will eat it.

dogs are definately overeaters .. bit i've never seen a cat that is .. except garfield .. but he's a cartoon.

I've noticed that where we (aus/nz) refer to it differently, a lot of countries just group "all things sheep" under "mutton".

But I still [insert ideology from the too hard pile here] because me stopping won't do anything.
Do you mean, as in "the meat trade will continue"?
Yeah, it will...but if you did feel like personally inclined to stop, it should be for your own reasons, a person doesn't need to make a difference to the whole world to in themselves feel better.

Me, I'm not about to stop eating meat - as it is, it's not all that much (I've got mates who eat some kind of meat in literally EVERY MEAL) and my body has grown rather used to it - eg, better equipped to absorb certain things from that which it's more used to.
I think that a BIG problem in this world is just how MUCH meat is consumed, either in frequency or ratio to vegetation.
Could just be me though, I love, LOVE salad...like crazy, vegetables, I'm way big on too. Indians, the non-vegetarian ones that is, they tend to do the meat thing right.
An easy enough way to do it is this - never eat a portion of meat bigger'n your palm, and eat 3 times as many salad and vegetables as that.

@ Phalanx:

I was just meaning a lot of people don't think they can change things because they don't think their individual actions will make a difference. More of a dig at defeatist attitudes rather than meat eating. You could've put a lot of things in the place of "eating meat" and the statement would still be the same.
