I heard on the news this week that eating red meats,pork, and ham are linked to cancer. Avoid it for your own health.

Choose chicken, fish instead....

For the chicken w skin...Remove the skin...Tip...

Stay healthy in 2016!! :)

I do not believe in studies, I believe everything in moderation.

I think it is really a scare tactic. Plus it depends a lot on how it is prepared. All things in moderation, like Rose said.

I am not sure I believe this. I do love chicken and fish, but I get sick of eating just these. I love the skin of chicken when it is cooked crispy. I find it hard to remove unless a recipe I am making calls for boneless and skinless.

Study or not. Hate the news media trying to scare us. Like rose mention,everything in moderation. I will eat veal or beef once a week.

I gave meat up. Mostly because it makes me feel sick especially red meat. So to me that alone is not worth health risks. Its been a learning process.
