What would you eat if you ate the same thing every day?

Billi-Jean · What would you eat if you ate the same thing every day?

I'm pretty much living on plain steak with a touch of salt every day, and occasionally I have eggs with butter or chicken or lamb, again just with a touch of salt, all cooked in goose fat.

But, if I could only have one of those things, it would be beef! Heart

True love! LOL

The more I eat it, the less I crave anything else.

BJ,

If this is an offer you are making... I'll choose Alaska King Crab Legs and Maine Lobster Tails with loads of melted butter. I'll even eat this stuff exclusively for an entire year... or how 'bout for the rest of my life! What the hell. Grin

I'll be looking forward to the shipments of this wonderful food of the gods, starting on May 1st.

And, thank you, thank you, thank you! Heart

I'm all about the beef as well. Actually, any hoofed ruminant :) Bison, elk etc. Lately, chicken and pork don't do it for me.

But I second the crab legs - I could live happily on steak, crab, garlic and butter, with a few eggs thrown in for good measure.

I could eat a very rare ribeye with butter every day without batting an eye.

Lobster, crab, scallops all deeeeeeeeelicious. With salted melted butter, if only I could tolerate.

Mutton every single day would also be great. But can't find any where I live. Sad

Beef is great too and that's what I eat almost exclusively because it's fatty and good and the next best thing after mutton and shellfish.

I recently started adding a little salt to my meat, tastes better and I think I was deficient in iodine just a little. So, let's see...

kristelle: i was thinking the same thing for myself. ive been using sea salt which I dont think has iodine.. so ive started using a steak salt on my meat instead and sea salt on my eggs. we dont need much iodine, but we do need some for thyroid function. my understanding is the more inland one lives, the less iodine in the diet. makes sense.

im not a big salt eater.. too much and it makes me

.. so I have to make sure to remember it.

BTW i could eat chuck eye steaks daily.. and I do eat eggs every day.. i have a super crush on eggs with raw yolks

the yolks taste like some delicious sauce over steak.. and other times they taste kind of how I remember vanilla to be.. dunno, im strange that way. yesterday I had a whole dozen hb for just 5 minutes which left the yolks all runny and delicious.. added 1/2 stick of butter, garlic and onion salt.. they were heavenly!

BJ: i think part of it is that red meat has a good amount of iron and increases B vitamins too

Kristelle, I went for two months with no salt, and finally got some iodized sea salt. It makes those bland tasting eggs so much better. Immediately after doing this, the frequent leg cramps I was having ceased, and I stopped feeling dizzy, as I was at times. I'm not sure why Cordain and Bear and others think salt is so bad, but, I think a bit of it is not only fine but may be necessary. Perhaps all the leg cramps people get when they get off junk is cuz junk food contains so much sodium. Once you throw off the sodium/potassium balance, this electrolyte balance issue will cause muscle contractions from hell (leg cramps). As long as one does not overdo salt, I don't think it's the issue some make it out to be. I still prefer unsalted butter, cuz it tastes so creamy and dreamy. My new Heart

since my breakup with cream. Wink

BJ, a porterhouse steak is like a t-bone, but it has more of the tenderloin on it. Those are usually pretty expensive steaks. If you look at a porterhouse, it is huge compared to the t-bone, cuz the tenderloin part is larger. The kc/ny strip steaks are the opposite side of the t-bone. The tenderloin side of a t-bone is yum. Usually, when they cut the strips off the t-bone, it ends up being pure meat, cuz they also trim all the fat off the edges. A strip of dry meat. Yuk! Mad

That's what I made the big mistake of buying a lot of on sale, last Fall. Now, I'm having to eat those up. Never again will I buy that type of cut. I'm planning on just searing these and eating them mostly raw. I love rib-eye and chuck-eye. They are so tender and fatty when really rare. Cool

BTW, there are special aminos or something in beef. I remember from nutrition classes that beef has some factors (probably some B vitamins and certain minerals) that other meat doesn't. I've had the same experience as you. If I go too long without beef, I start to really crave it, and it ends up making me feel so good. I think us humans have a very close evolutionary connection with eating herbivores. Mammoth, bison, and other grazing herbivores, were big parts of our diets for a very long time. So, BJ, add some tenderloins to that seafood order. Grin

I notice a good feeling from lambs/goats hart in the way of aged meat. I cut it up in to pieces, put all in a glace jar with a lid, air and turn around every day for extra bacteria.

Lots of Q10 Heart

Nicola

I also have the feeling that it helps with mood, fear, energy boost, sleep, digestion...

Billi-Jean

Great info here everyone, thanks! Heart

Tracy

Great beef info! I really notice that beef (or other ruminants) gives me tons of energy, especially when it's mostly raw inside. Other meats have become once-in-a-while foods.

Though tonight I am having enormous quantities of pork ribs...mmmm.

Rare Ribeye with Butter Heart

lex_rooker

I do eat the same thing everyday so for me it is not a "what if". Course ground grass fed beef mixed with Slankers Dog & Cat food which is made from a little bit of everything including a variety of organ meats. All of it is from beef, and I always eat it raw.

I do go out to eat about twice a month and then I order two 16 oz ribeyes as rare as they will make them smothered in butter.
