So, I will be posting about #tallow -- both beef and buffalo. I honestly think that EVERYONE who eats meat (myself included) should eat less meat -- make it a special occasion! And when we do consume meat, we should use as much of the animal as possible -- as was done by #IndigenousPeoples around the world. And we should realize that a life has been taken, and not be so casual about it.
And yeah, I wish I could do a vegan diet, but I can't. I have a condition that prevents me from eating too many beans (and I love cheese). I eat meat on occasion, and make it a part of a bigger meal (stews, soups, stir-fry, etc), with lots of veggies and starches (rice or potatoes). A little meat goes a long way, and I love leftovers. I do eat vegetarian dishes the rest of the week. But I have never been a burger-a-day person! UGH!

- A report on proposed changes to U.S. dietary guidelines suggests encouraging people to eat more beans and lentils for protein and less #RedMeat.
- Updated guidelines are expected to go into effect later next year.
- Future guidelines should also spur people to eat more whole grains and consume less sugary drinks, sodium and processed food, the report says."#DietForASmallPlanet #Diet #MeatEating #EatLessMeat #GoMeatless

I've been saying this for a long time. If we are going to eat meat (especially beef), it should be expensive and a special treat -- not an everyday occurrence!
The End of the #CheapBurger
#FastFood chains might be dangling deals, but #MeatEaters better prepare for a new, more expensive era for America’s favorite food.

"Most of us remember 2020 for the pandemic, but ranchers will also remember it for the severe drought. When pasture for herds to graze grows harder to come by, ranchers send animals to slaughter without replacing them, shrinking herds and sending prices up. 2024’s rainfall has been better, but parts of the country are still not out of the woods. Even as the costs of feed for cattle has declined, higher interest rates and operating expenses have meant that it’s still too pricey for most ranchers to get back to growing their herds, or 'rebuilding' them, in industry parlance. So the number of cattle continues to fall, and the price of beef will continue to rise."

Red algae will NOT eliminate livestock as a problem for combating climate change.
The U.N. has a report stating that the livestock industry contributes more to the greenhouse effect than *transportation*.
One reason is methane.
It was hoped that mixing seaweed into livestock feed would cut methane emissions. Earlier studies showed 90% reductions and higher.
However, this latest and longest running study only showed a 28% reduction.
A guaranteed way to reduce methane emissions from the livestock industry is to minimize meat consumption. Eat less meat.

What's the market for #recipes that are both low carb & low meat?
We have a family member who has to eat low carb. We also strive to #EatLessMeat. This has forced me to get pretty creative in the kitchen. I've built a decent repertoire of recipes that are #keto-friendly, kid-friendly, working-parent-friendly, animal-friendly(ish), & don't use artificial sweeteners. It's a niche need, but curious if anyone else out there is chasing a similar diet & could use help!
