So, on balance, everybody here loves BACON, right!?
Actually, I love the taste of meat. My favorite meal (if we're talking strictly about taste) is beef fajitas at one particular restaurant. If you go there with me, it is required that you sit in silence while I savor every morsel of beef that I scrape from the grill pan. Heaven!
But then there's my personal health and also the sadness I feel when I consider the animal that was raised and slaughtered solely for my personal indulgence. I can live without that (most of the time). I doubt that I could ever become a strict vegetarian and avoid all contact with animal products. I don't think it's practical for me or necessary. But I would like to reduce my meat intake to, say, a meal once or twice a week (preferably fish or poultry for health reasons). I'm getting there but I'm surrounded my meat eaters and so there's some discipline required. (Discipline? Me??)
