    Meat is healthy knowing where you get it.

    Youd never catch me buying meat at Safeway or anything close to it. That meat looks horrible... the color is fucked up... I worked for that chain... no thanks -.-

    Hopefuly one day I can own some property. When I do. I want a few pigs and a single steer always. Grown it... eat it.. repeat it.

    the plastic ruins the color (lack of oxygen)....color comes back after opening...

    you shouldnt go by color alone as that weird colored stuff is usually because they packed it simple without pumping in gasses and dyes like the bigger chains do

    dude im afraid to buy anything from safeway and stores a like.

    I have family and friends who have chickens and eat their eggs, the shape is different, some of the color of each egg is different, they all look different.

    then on easter the boss tells dairy manager to order 5 or 6 pallets of eggs and every single box we open looks the same... that mentality made me stop buy many things in general..

    different types of chickens produce different types of eggs. Chicken "farms" probably all use the same type of chicken. I bought some eggs from the farmers market recently that were green.

    but yeah, otherwise I agree with you. Farm raised, from a real farm, or from someone's backyard chickens, always taste better than eggs from a supermarket.

    You just nailed the problem right there, I think. Meat back in the days wasn't boosted with growth hormones and all the crap we can find in today's meat, so I guess the impact its consumption has on the body (cause I also believe everything you eat directly affects you) isn't the same anymore. Also people used to be a lot more active physically than today, so they burned all the fat the meat they ate contained instead of accumulating it in their arteries or around their waistlines like many modern North Americans do. That said, I think today's people would benefit from turning to leaner sources of proteins to fulfill (most of) their daily needs as it would balance things up. A lesser daily calorie expense requires a lesser calorie intake, it's just plain logical isn't it?


    Green eggs? Sounds awesome!

    i'm not much on pizza, but almost raw meat is kind of like candy to me. with a little bit of lemon and a little bit of powdered bullion instead of salt.

    it bothers me the way the animals who's meat i eat are treated. i would like to change that if i could. but the taste and flavor of meat, i suppose it might even be a kind of addiction.

    but an addiction is when you feel like you have to have something, whether you like it or not. and that's not the way it is at all. i really do just love the taste of it.

    well oddly enough it was NOT meat that sustained people in primative times, nor people living close to the earth even today. throughout most of human history, meat has been more of an occasional treat. when the hunters got lucky and brought something home. the rest of the time it was like acorn mush, or whatever life sustaining plant material happened to be locally abundant wherever you happened to live and been born and the culture you grew up in. the idea that hunters and gaterers lived more by hunting then gathering, or even a kind of casual agricultuire, is pure hollywood fantasy.

    Actually we evolved into homo sapiens during a protracted ice age. The tofu bush that lives on glaciers remains undiscovered.

    Lots of people are trying to make a change. It has more impact if we all make that effort. I sometimes still buy cheap meat as well (baloney for example, or some meat from the chippies) but not nearly as often as I did! Now I have 1) a less amount of meat in my diet and 2) more money to buy higher quality meat. To me it seems we can really change a lot in the meat industry if we all (or at least a majority) did this consistently.
