Ultimate Food Battle #9: Steak vs. Seafood

[Captante]

Overall I prefer seafood, but the comparision here is simply too broad.

Don't forget that whole "mercury content of fish" thing.

That's a really tough call.

Gimme prime rib and a filet on the side. Steak wins.

Chilled lump crabmeat for appetizer makes it the perfect meal.

Seafood. I love steak more than lobster..but crab and scallops are swell!

 

[Phokus]

Seafood for sure since it covers so much food (shrimp, cod, lobster, eel, muscle, scallops, prawn, etc. ftw)

'Yuck seafood' is right.

Hey what's that crawling on the ocean floor over there? I know it looks like an insect, but let's just throw it in a pot and boil it live... we'll call it a lobster and enjoy.

Oh wait, there's these smaller things with so many legs seemingly floating around. We could boil them too, pull off ALL of its legs, plus the head - cause the bulgy eyes scare us - we'll call these... shrimp!

Would it make me mad, like the mad hatter? That would be kinda cool.

That being said, I'd have to go with seafood by a slim margin. Most steaks are better than most seafood though.

Hey look at me, I can do the same thing with cows!!

Seafood ftw

Seafood FTW

This isn't exactly a fair "battle". Steaks are basically...steaks. Seafood on the other hand can come in all different taste: Lobster, Shrimp, shellfish, Mussels, Clams, Fish (huge selection), Crab, scallops and so many more.

A steal is from a single animal cooked a variety of ways. Seafood is literally hundreds of different types of things cooked in many different ways.

Stupid battle if you ask me.

Chicken vs. Steak would be more of a "battle".

 

[RESmonkey]

Whale FTW. Seriously, though. I want to taste whale (I just tasted meat for the first time like a month ago).

 

[vi edit]

Lobster and tuna were the main dish in two of the best meals I've ever had.
But I do steak more frequently because it's just easier and cheaper to cook and still have it taste great.

So I think I have to say seafood is better, but I do steak more frequently.

It is stupid, because Steak is better than anything that comes out of the sea. All those millions of different fish and other creatures and meat from one animal is better then every one. Steak, FTW.

I'm a steak and potatoes kind of guy. while some seafood can be really good, nothing matches something like braised short rib or osso buco.

it tastes very much like beef. not exagerrating or simplifying or anything. if noone had told you something is whale, you would not know it

 

[EGGO]

Seafood tastes better to me, but healthwise, it all matters what it is you're eating which is better.

I live near Chicago, home of the world's best pizzas...

NY pizza > Chicago pizza.

times infinity. there should be no discussion in the matter.

Do I hear a Food Battle #20 coming up? I'm from Texas and vote for NY pizza.

NY pizza vs chicago pizza!??!

that's like....

master chief vs tony danza rockets on epitath...
or a level 39 paladin vs a level 3 maggot...
or mortons vs sizzler...
or bruce lee vs coke...

You guys are nuts... Flat flavorless pizza that tastes damn near identical to the next NY pizza, vs a deep dish actual PIE in a flavor extravaganza... But this this is the wrong topic. for this thread Time to start a new thread!

Three things you need to know in life

Does Chicken of the Sea count as seafood?

Hard for me to say. Both are awesome. I have to say, Im leaning on the seafood side. But steak is pretty damn good too.
