I just finished a bacon sandwich-—just buttered light rye and bacon. Pure heaven.
.
Like I said. I have had 3 vegetarian friends. Two died early in their lives.
I’d love to see a source on that.
I consider myself enlightened, I love and am peace with all foods.
Well, except for celery, food of the devil it is!
They can be great - in the right hands.
I’ve had plain cabbage prepared by native Chinese visitors that was EXCELLENT.
I had an American buddy cook zucchini that was SUPERB.
Most of the time that stuff goes straight into my garbage can or compost pile. I very nearly threw up at the dinner table over zucchini my mother made.
But these two instances proved to me the problem was in how it was prepared.
Now if somebody can make turnips, rutabagas, and others tasty, I’ll put down the meat to take a few bites.
Think of it as an edible knife. Peanut butter, tuna fish, cream cheese, Nutella, bacon. Just fill the trough with whatever and chow down...
I’d rather eat a butter knife.
Peel a turnip and eat it raw. It is kind of sweet and crispy, much better than cooked.
thank you for that!
my grandfather used to eat onions like that.
later we began to suspect that he was trying to mask the Wild Turkey.
I agree.There are many meatless dishes that are outstanding.But as a fanatical...and unafraid...omnivore I know that there are just as many meat dishes that qualify as fun and tasty.
Not the way I cook 'em....in beef broth, served up with lots of hot sauce.
Cooking bacon in front of a vegetarian is like waving garlic at a vampire. Only difference is they will grab some and scarf it down
Sure phytoestrogens were one of the things my wife’s oncologist warned us about. My point was that even hated tofu can be prepared to be tasty. It may have been the last time I had any.
Too much meat. Too much - meat? Too! Much meat!
Sorry, that phrase does not parse in English. Wait, yes it does: "There is too much meat in the freezer; the door won't shut."
