How can you have any pudding...?

I ate his liver with a side of fava beans and a nice chianti...

Beef. Venison's my favorite, actually, but I don't get it too often.

I prefer seafood mostly, but I do enjoy a good steak when I go out as well. I may even go surf and turf if I am treating myself. Though if I cook at home I mainly prepare chicken dishes, sometimes beef.

Hey, where's the "All of the above" option?!

Have to go with seafood, though I'd hate to give up chicken broth or the occasional steak.

Chicken is the universal meat. Didn't you wonder why everything tastes like it?

I will be the stereotypical obnoxious vegan and point out that I am a vegan.

I am a vegan.

I've considered removing meat from my list of consumables, but dairy is a huge part of my diet (so I'd never go vegan).

Oh good god...

Well to not turn this into a debate; I love all meat. Medium rare steaks, fried chicken, buffalo shrimp, Thanksgiving turkey (that isnt over cooked), candied ham, BACON!, bison, elk... yum!

Favorite.... Ummmm... I don't really have any special love for lamb, and I very rarely eat pork. I love elk but rarely have a chance to eat it. I don't think I've eatin' goat. It would have to be somewhere between steak and seafood.

Funny enough I used to hate seafood. I didn't really start eating it until a few years into adulthood. I don't think I ate shrimp until I was like 24. First time I ate (real) crab and lobster was a year later.

I also get a hangover from white pasta, white bread, and beer, so I avoid those too. not really sure what the prob is, I eat brown pasta, bread and rice all the time.

Sounds like blood sugar and lactose intolerance. White bread and white rice are trash.

I love dairy and burgers. I am 90% sure I shouldn't eat dairy (or gluten) but dat shit be tasty. It's not usually a big enough concern anyway. Yes, vegetarian and vegan are healthy diets but there are worse things for you than a dead cow that are completely vegan. It doesn't help that there is shitload of misinformation on nutrition out there.

All meats for me, sans seafood - on account of I'm allergic to shellfish. 😞 Ribs are the tastiest. 😊

Oh and Beldaran, you can't tell me what to do.

I prefer seafood and turkey. I'll eat whatever really, but sometimes I just don't feel like eating certain foods.

This thread is not about pudding at all! Why use the word "any" for anything, really, that is sick!

Brains.

JK.

SUCCESSOR could be right about lactose-intolerance. It can be hard to pinpoint because other foods you eat will determine how difficult it is to digest milk/milk products each time. It is somewhat cummulative so you may be fine consuming four ounces of cheese one day in the middle of a dairy-free week while three ounces of cheese, three days in a row, may leave you feeling icky by that third day. Not all cheeses are created equal and aged cheeses (think hard, like parmesan) and active, fresh cheeses (containing active 'biotics) can be easier to digest than new, firm cheeses like muenster because they have their own digestion helpers. That said, I am not above pigging out on a bowl of ice cream once in a while knowing full well that the macaroni & cheese or creamy potato soup from the night before will mean guaranteed headache.

High fructose corn syrup could also be a culprit and that sh*te is in everything. It took me a while to figure out it was making me feel ill, in spite of avoiding an increasing list of foods during that time, as it manifests effects similar to too much lactose for me: stuffy headache and queasy stomach only the headache is worse than from lactose. Unlike lactose, I cannot even cheat a little with HFCS else I feel like crap for hours. K., who thought it was all in my head for a couple of years, finally tested the theory and found that it was the cause of his chronic headaches. Side note to that, in spite of maintaining the same level of soda consumption (a lot), he actually dropped about ten pounds just by cutting out HFCS. Yay, to Mt. Dew Throwback.

Zim, this might resolve any issues you have with this thread. It may also spawn some new issues regarding pudding.

It was a toss up between chicken and seafood for me. Chicken is my favorite meat to eat on a regular basis, but since my favorite meal contains crawfish, I'll go with seafood.

I'm pretty much a fan of all meats, but nothing beats a good steak for me. Probably not the healthiest thing in the world, though. I also love me some crab legs when I can get them. It actually kind of concerns me how much I like crab legs - it's not just the meat, it's the ripping the legs up to get to the meat. Like, here I am, like some monster, relishing in tearing this creature apart to get to its tasty bits. It's funny, because for that exact same reason, I get weirded out by shrimp. I don't dislike shrimp, but I always feel slightly uncomfortable peeling off the shells, because I'm reminded I'm peeling apart an animal. Weird double standards, I know.

Cow. They're so cute and docile, just begging to be slaughtered and roasted over open flames.

Nope. I have a brother named Matthew though. I'm a Paul. Interestingly, all the males in my family have good Judeo-Christian names, while all the females have decidedly hippy names like Echo and Mystery.

The answer is pork, you dork.
