Ethically, I admire vegans & wish I could do that. I tried being a vegetarian for about 3 years-didn't work for me. I love to cook & so far, vegan main dish recipes have resulted in revolting fare. I stopped eating beef about 10 yrs ago. 2 1/2 yrs ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer. After my lumpectomy I wasn't healing. I asked my doctor why & she asked if I was eating beef. I told her I wasn't. She advised me to. I did & I did heal better. I eat grass-fed beef only & in the cancer community, the saying is "eat lean and clean." That includes lambs, bison, and elk. I support the Humane Farmers Association because even though I'm an omnivore, I abhor cruelty.
