• I still don’t understand what a conservative communist is.


  • Don’t ask me, I’m CCC (Confederate Conservative Communist), not CC (Conservative Communist). :wink:

  • What is a Confederate Conservative Communist?


  • I’m sure you have some imagination g, figure it out and connect the dots.


  • @TG:

    Yeah, Baffalo burgers sure are tasty. :P Ostrich burgers too! (yet another example of a big, dumb bird)

    never had those…what are they called,. Emu?


  • You never had ostrich burgers? Don’t know what they called (I always called them ostrich burgers). What I can say is that it’s a rich mix of chicken and beef (which pretty much somes up a ostrich in real life). Also, it’s healthier than regular beef because of the lack of red meat and whatever.


  • Not to change the topic here, but red meat is actually very healthy for you.


  • I always had health gurus say red meat is bad for you.


  • I work for a body building company( EAS) here, so it my job to now about nutrition and supplementation.
    However, I am not all knowing, there is a lot of theroy out there about the body building industry.


  • Hmmm… might be like Red Wine. Very many conflicted studies on its effects.

    Personally, I hope red meat is good for you. If I don’t have my daily fixin’ of meat, I freak! :wink:


  • Ghoul, you work at experimental and applied science?

    Yes, I work for EAS( Experimental and Applied Sciences) in Canada.


  • Wasn’t that company started by bill Philips? YOu make like protein shakes, right?


  • @yourbuttocks:

    Yes, your right, Bill Phillips started EAS.
    The Company makes protein shakes, creatine, fat burners and things like that.


  • Unless you have a lot of money to blow, a vegetarian life style is probably overall less healthy than a meat eating one. So eat those tacos!


  • You darn tootin’! :wink:

    (Until then I’ll eat every ostrich, buffalo, cow, and manatee that I can get my gristly little hands on)

    ahhhh . . . no wonder “red meat is good for you”. It has a lot of protein, but N.American diets get too much: Fat, Protein, and Sugar (glucose/starches). I know people into the extra protein, however it must be consumed responsibly, otherwise you might as well just drink milkshakes etc. - that protein will turn into fat if proper use isn’t made of it quickly. From what i’ve read, i’d say maybe eat more extra-lean meat, if you have to eat any red meat. Otherwise the Canadian Food Guide is usually appropos.
    Moses - consensus on MODERATE red wine intake (unless you are an alcoholic or have another alcohol-related disease) is that it is good for you. Prevents heart disease and cancers with few residual effects (if taken moderately, of course).


  • Yeah, problem is that a lot of people DON’T take it moderately.

    Protein doesn’t turn into fat.
    If you eat high glycemic foods and/or alot of calories it raises your insulin levels, which as we know is a storage hormone, and that, in a nutshell, promotes the storage of body fat.
    Fat doesnt necessarily make you fat, the added calories may.
    Here endith the lesson.


  • All of those crazy diets…people know what is healthy and what is not. Though I must say, I have a friend who lost 50 poundxs using that “points” thing.
