Double Down Suicide What do you think?

Your right redux, she said it had a lot of fat on it and was very greasy, she didn't like it too much. Her husband did though. Lol. I don't think I even eat that much meat in an entire week or more.

It does not look like anything I would want to eat. All I can see is fat, salt, preservatives and additives. Urk.

Animal fats are full of fat soluble vitamins that are not available in anything else. In the past, the natives would actually refuse to eat any game they harvested, if it did not have fat on it.
Protein requires fat for proper digestion.

That may be true but it does not require a massive amount. It is foolish to think that if a little bit of fat is good, a lot is better. Fat is high in calories. Most of us do not exercise as much as natives who harvest their own game. Your average cube rat like myself can make do on a whole lot less fat.

Not talking about cup fulls here...sigh...........never mind

Yeah neither do I, I suppose that is why a sandwich like this seems so disgusting to me. I prefer a wrap with sprouts and avocado and tomatoes. I do eat meat again, but I am still drawn toward a more healthy, vegetarian lifestyle.

I know- I was referring to the amount of fat that is surely in that sandwich. It has to be way too much.

Considering that the regulars eat an entire burger like that quite often, and knowing where that meat most likely came from - and the bread. Then they wash it down with a couple of beers. Ah huh.

Fat or not, it was GOOD! I wouldn't eat one every day, or every week for that matter, but it was delicious.

I am more carnivore, than omnivore. I crave meat. Give me a 24 ounce ribeye with a LOT of marbling, medium rare (more on the rare side), cooked over a very hot flame, and I am a happy man. That being said, I recognize the health implications of such a diet and I do not partake of such treats, but for the rare occasion. For those that do not, good for them.

To paraphrase (and with apologies to) Patrick Henry: Is life so dear, or health so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of sprouts and tofu? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me Ribeyes, and give my arteries death!

Oh dear Animal fats actualy do your arteries a favor.
Its the processed oils that clog things up, along with pasturized calcium.

Ever had to clean the hood over the stove in a home where vege oils are commonly used?
You know how sticky that stuff is?
Well, thats what is getting caught in the inner pipes.
Lard and butter do not do that.
And in a kitchen where only real fats are used to cook with, you will not have that sticky build up in the hood, never mind ont he stove top itself.

I think if you really like that stuff you should eat it once in a while.
We all know that animal fats are death to your arteries but as long as you don't do it all the time, your doctor shouldn't give you too hard of a time. I actually like sprouts and tofu, and if I found out they were bad for me, I would still want to have them once in a while. Ya gotta live a little.

Animals fats are not bad for you. Not only that, saturated fat is PROTECTIVE.

There is nothing inherently healthier about a vegetarian diet.

They are finally putting these wild assumptions made about diet over the last 30 years to testing and meat and natural fats keep coming out on top.

They were never bad for you to begin with.

If vegetarian is your preference....great! But it isn't healthier or better because it excludes meat or fat. It is, at best, just different.
