I eat all kinds of meat, except organ meat (yuck!), but especially chicken and hamburger.

Juliana, I haven't had Mjaddra for a long time, because it's not a favorite meal--but I do like it. My bf has made it, and I have done it with his help.

I like seafood, but it's not my favorite meat. I was raised on seafood. I love fish, but hate anything bony...I might love the flavor, but not the bones, in other words. Looove weakfish, but haven't had it in a long time, probably not since my dad died. I love crabmeat, too.

I have mixed feelings about eating meat and animal welfare. I don't like the meat industry, how animals are killed for meat, the fact that they are killed for meat, etc. At the same time, I believe we're supposed to eat meat. But I'll become a vegetarian if they start putting out meat from cloned animals like they plan to, without informing the public about which meat is cloned and which isn't.

I've eaten raw fish sushi (sushi does not mean "raw fish," nor is it always made with raw fish!), but I'm squeamish about too much of it (knowing it's raw fish squidges me), and I haven't been able to attempt sashimi, which is always raw fish. I prefer cooked Japanese and Korean foods, like rice, miso soup, beef or chicken teriyaki, chicken tempura, etc. God, I miss Japanese food! We can't afford to eat it right now.

I absolutely refuse to eat veal, for the same reason Juliana mentioned. I love beets, though. Not big on squash, except I do like pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving. Also, my boyfriend makes butternut squash bisque some years (for Christmas), and it is awesome!
