Why is everything I love to eat bad for me? I know shellfish are high in cholestrol: shrimp, lobster, & clams... how about red meat?

I <3 beef: Prime rib, sirloin steak, and so on....

How do you classify red meat anyway?

Oh noes!1! Icarus went to high and his wing wax melted then he fell far below and crashed into the sea.

Don't be like Icarus! Do you want YOUR wax to melt? HMMM?!

In the words of Charles Barkley -
On Kevin Eubanks being a vegetarian: "I don't trust people that don't eat meat. Hey Kevin, you know what the difference between me and you is? When I die, I'll die because I was eating bad food. When you die, they'll say 'wooo that Kevin, he as dead as Charles'"

Everything kills you, but red meat really has gotten a bad rap. I think the main problem is its generally higher in saturated fat than its main meat competitor, poultry. I say if you buy it lean and grill it its fine.

But I'd actually like to know more on this topic as well.

I don't care what I eat, I'm gonna die of liver failure long before anything else.

EVERYTHING is bad for you. Every beat your heart takes, you're that much closer to death.

Who the fvck cares. When you die, you die. Big whoop.

LOL!

Red meat isn't nearly as bad for you as people make it out to be. The problem is that most Americans are looking for a diet that is healthy for someone who gets ZERO exercise. That's tricky...if you get any exercise at all, it REALLY opens up what you can eat without health complications.
