Poll: Your opinion on meat products

If I could live solely on a carnivore's diet then I would be a carnivore. Sadly humans require carbohydrates to live.
I'm not morally opposed to the eating of meat and other animal products, but I think responsible consumption is important for the sake of your own health, animal welfare and the benefit of the world at large.
I have a minor in animal science and the way a vast amount of meat is produced, I just don't want to put it in my body. I've never been partial to beef (just never tickled my palette really), but knowing how a many feed lots and slaughterhouses work makes it all the more unappealing.
And if you're a vegetarian or vegan reading this and feeling smug, you've no right - modern agribusiness has made the produce of many crops just as destructive and damaging as that of food animals.

I absolutely love meat, particularly red meat. There's nothing like a nice, juicy, slightly bloody steak cooked over charcoal or pine wood. Tonight I had delicious, lean venison burgers from a deer I shot back in November. I'm just amazed more places, or really any places around here don't serve venison. Depending on it's diet, it's much richer tasting than beef, and deer is much leaner and healthier than beef. I love them both, but a deer with a good diet of fresh prairie grass, hay, and creek water, is far better than a cow living in a pen with 200 other cows, and being stuffed with corn it's whole life.
I had brisket and spicy cheddar sausage just tonight for dinner. Yum!
And when I finally get my copy of Mass Effect 3 in the mail I shall celebrate the occassion with a plate of beef fajitas!
Now do I wish I could be a vegetarian or a vegan? Yes, I would like to be able to live in harmony with all the other animals. And hey if I didn't have meat delivered to my grocery store I probably would be because I don't have the skills nor the strength of will to bash bessie's brains in. Call me a hypocrite if you like, but at least I admit it. I'm an animal, I shall do as the animals do.

Love meat. I'm a vegan but it's dericious.
It's the whole idea that animals MAY be mistreated in the process of production that bothers me. Not the actual part about eating meat, but the process as to which it goes through. I'm not going to make a difference and I don't particularly advocate veganism but ... yeah.

As annoying as the guy is, and as much as I hate the adds, I'm going to have to agree with them here: Not eating lamb is unaustralian.
Really, I'd extend that to meat in general, but give me a good lamb, or BBQ'd steak, and I'm a happy man. Take away my meat, and we're going to have problems.

I'm an omnivore... not the black and white Meat eater or vegetarian weirdo type.
A balanced diet is important.

I could take it or leave it. I honestly think meat is super overrated. I won't avoid it, but I won't go out of my way for it. Usually have meat once or twice a week.
I actually enjoy taking a big greasy philly cheese steak and eating it in front of vegetarians, mooing at them between bites. (not really but I think it'd be hilarious)
Also my favorite food EVER are Gorilla Eggs. What are those you ask?
Hollow out a Jalapeno and stuff it with cheese.
Wrap it in layers of ham and bacon until you can't see the Jalapeno.
Deep Fry
You can almost feel your arteries hardening while you eat it but you just don't care.
