These days I only eat cuts of meat and never touch anything processed. I've read in far too many places where the companies put all sorts of nasties in processed meat products. Simply because a company has a good image, it doesn't guarantee that they've put decent ingredients in the products. If you can't see or tell the difference, the manufacturer is always going to go for the cheapest possible ingredients to maximize profit margins.
Hence I only eat what I *know* to be an actual chunk of cow/chicken/lamb and not something bulked up with chicken skin (which by law counts as meat) or whatever...
Are you a spokesperson for peta?
You know that unless your meat is freerange it's pumped up with a ridiculous amount of chemicals right? So going off on a tangent about the evils of processed foods really just fades into the background in the grand scheme.
Here is a pointer for you, just about everyone on the planet does not, and does not want to live a "perfectly" healthy life. So making some vain PC comment about other peoples habits really just makes you look like an ass instead of getting your "point" across.
Also, 6 months is barely a trial run for being vegetarian. YOU COULDNT HANDLE IT COULD YOU!!!!
