How can you call yourself a meat-eater?

How can you call yourself a 'Meat-Eater', if you don't eat every type of meat? It'a bit much when you cater for carnivores and they tell you 'I don't eat red meat' or 'I don't eat veal out of principle'
My BIL is an offender, he doesn't eat Pork, just because he doesn't like the taste !!! What is that all about?
You either like meat or you don't. My DM doesn't eat Spam, because she thinks it's common...
Fakes, the lot of 'em.
I am better than all of them because I like all types of meat, and that in turn gives me the right to judge whether they are a 'proper' meat eater or not.
So please - don't make the mistake of calling yourself a meat-eater if you wouldn't wolf down one of those slices of -arsehole/eyehole/earhole mush- luncheon meat shaped like teddies or cartoon characters.
OOOOh it makes my blood boil.

Don't care. I'm still morally superior! :o

PS, nice one, emmanana though I bet someone will tick you off about starting a thread about a thread. :o

I only eat chicken breast or pork. Ever. My midwife hated me for it.

I only eat adorable looking animals as meat. Its my secret beauty trick, you are what you eat and all.

I love spam, especially spam fritters from the chippy

So following that trend you can only be a vegetarian if you like and eat ALL vegetables?

TheTwoFreds · 30/01/2011 00:58

That's right Lonnie! Though technically it's ok if you don't eat tomatoes, as they are a fruit.

Oh dear,outed. Should have changed my name back before answering Blush !!!
Back to the real me in two ticks Wink

I call myself a vegetarian- just in case someone decides to plonk a lump of REAL meat on my plate. No principles involved here!

I only like processed reformed meat, ie- Smoked bacon, Wafer thin turkey ham, chicken burgers, pork crackling/scratchings. So I piss off vegetarians ( as i'm not one) and I piss off Carnivores ( as I sort of eat meat- but don't)
