Pig or Cow? Pork or Beef? Which is your favourite? Battle of the meats!

[Charger]

I've realised we haven't really talked a whole lot about food around here yet...

So lets kick that conversation off with a battle of the two main meats! Pig and Cow! Which one do you prefer?

I've always been a pork guy myself...just love the taste of pork...

I can eat Beef too and when it comes to ground meat I'll usually choose beef actually as it can be bit leaner.

But talking about steaks and such...pork is my favourite!

I voted Beef but I like pork as well. I also have been eating more chicken lately. Trying to eat a bit better.

Nothing beats a steak though or a nice bacon cheeseburger. Damn now I am hungry!

I love fish. When I'm in a steak restaurant, I order fish and I'm happier with my choice than if I ordered steak. I enjoy candied fish from Vietnam and Thailand. Fish, fish, fish, fish, fish!

I've also eaten insects and I can say that they're pretty tasty. So I voted insect.

I love the taste of fish, but I am allergic to fish. Not shellfish mind you, but fish. I can eat crabs, shrimp, lobster oysters, clams, but give me Tuna or Salmon and my throat starts to close up.

Yeah I do try to eat fish every now and then too, but I wanted this to be about Pork vs Beef more than anything.

I do not eat chicken...I got pretty traumatized when I was a kid and ate some bad chicken or something and got really really sick...remember throwing up constantly...haven't eaten chicken since.


I haven't tried insects yet...well part from few flies and mosquitos that fly into my mouth...they aren't all that tasty.

Being more and more aware of the industrial slaughter perpetuated on our co-tenants on this planet, I must say that I still eat beef but fish is my favorite food. Aside from sausages and ham, I don't eat pork.
Still not tried insect. I can't pass the disgust that it generates in me in addition to this swarming and multi-legged aspect. That said, we will sooner or later be obliged to do so. The diet based on seaweed also has a bright future ...

We've got some insect products for sale here where they are ground up to a fine powder...that should help with the disgust...I have been meaning to try out the sausage made from that but haven't yet....

I have cut out a good deal of red meat from my diet over the years.  Given these choices, I would choose beef, but fish and fowl is my thing.  Even the hot dogs I buy are turkey dogs.  I can not tell it isn't beef.

@Zzz - if you like fish that much, then I hope you had some when you visited Boston.  Here in Massachusetts we have loads of fresh fish.

OH YES I DID!!!

Some truly *excellent* preparations, I might add! Seafood and pizza, you can't go wrong in Massachusetts!

Raindeer is really really good.

Haven't tried Kangaroo...would have had the chance couple of weeks ago as there was International Market at the city and there was an Australian booth there that sold Kangaroo burgers...but they cost sooo much that I didn't wanna risk it in case it didn't taste good.
