Red meat isn't "bad for you".

Eating too many cheeseburgers is a problem, mostly because it's easy to consume too many calories and cheeseburgers aren't good at making you feel full, but nothing is inherently wrong about red meat in a balanced diet, in fact it has many beneficial properties.



I'm pro red meat. To be clear - most of the ill effects ascribed to red meat are due to people eating shitty red meat with a load of crap added.


Cured meats have issues. In moderation, I think they also have their place.
