6. We seldom do burgers. Only when traveling and we dont have time to a sit down restaurant.

We do like steak once an awhile perhaps twice a month.

What about pork? Is that an environmentally safe meat? We do eat pork frequently.

9. Easy. We rarely eat any beef or lamb. Instead eat ground

turkey, shrimp, fish, chicken and lots of veggies. Yet I cook more gourmet now than when kids were home. home. Yay, no more mac n cheese.

11. I will not eat red meat any more.

And I refuse to cook it. Hubby has to make his own burgers.

It's not a health issue with me - it's just that since I grew up on a farm with baby calves to fed (their Moms were milked), I formed a loving attachment to the little critters and the thought of killing and eating them, young or old, sickened me. My siblings also still feel the same.

Could anyone here eat their pets?
