If I want a medium-rare burger, I grind it. But I find myself eating a lot less meat lately, and more beans and cheese. Bob |

Cost is probably the biggest one; I'm trying to fully-fund my 401(k) and my Roth IRA and a health spending account while sending a kid to college. There's not much left for food and gasoline after that -- of course I don't *have* to fully fund all the accounts. But also Daughter is dabbling with being a vegetarian, so while she was home for summer I cooked a lot of vegetarian meals, and they weren't bad :-) I think vegetarianism is a bit extreme, but most Americans probably eat too much meat.

We get these chubs of "Mystery Meat" directrly from the processor. ( apparenbtly chub packaging extends the shelf life ) It has no taste, no smell.... might as well be kangaroo. You can still buy local ground chuck...at more than double the price. Personally, I still think it's a government conspiracy to move people away from beef, and into more pork and chicken. Who can afford beef any more ?? |

As populations explode the world over, the agricultural knee-jerk reaction is to faster supply beef (and all other consumables) to meet the larger growing demand at any cost. It's a snowballing downward spiral, imho. Best, Andy |

The meatloaf was delicious and the meatballs are in the freezer. Both mixtures tasted pretty good raw. Once again I have tip-toed past the Grim Reaper and lived to tell about it. Tonight we are going out for dinner and I plan to have crab legs and very rare Prime Rib. If anyone thinks that either of these things are potentially fatal for me, please keep it to yourself. <vbg> George L <---- living on the edge of danger |

The meat sold for steaks etc. apparently has lower standards as far as pathogens go, on the theory that they will be killed by thorough cooking. Thus, you could very well be grinding surface bacteria etc. into your meat. That being said, since I don't think we are all going to give up totally on ground meat, it is up to us to decide what the most acceptable approach(es) might be. -- Jean B. |
