If I write, will you read? If I beg, will you feed?

Avoid red meat, be healthy!



I am really not a health buff, and I was never really conscious with the food I eat. A daily non-exercise regimen while I try to flatten my ass in front my PC everyday, would make you want to ask – why am I posting a topic on health?

But when I read about the dangers of red meat, I am reminded, not just because I consume red meat almost everyday, but the fact that whatever I eat, my children also eat.


Believe me, when you read the results of the study, it is really alarming. I am not about to start being health conscious, then again, my kids should have a better choice. And I guess, now I do too – start learning how to cook real food.

Those who knows the predicament that I and my kids are in now, would understand why burger patties, hotdogs, tocino, longganisa, and other easy-to-fry foods are my choices. Nobody is complaining, not my kids. They will eat whatever is set on the table.

I always wanted to cook real food, in fact I have made some attempts in the past. And I can say that they’re decent enough to be called food. Still, the ‘easier to cook’ food are the more popular choice.

Red meat is protein, it is also nutritious. Well, anything in excess is not really good. So daily intake of red meat I guess would qualify for that excess.

I hope this time I can stick to this resolution, that I will learn to cook real food. Just because my children doesn’t have to be have a better choice.

Of course, you will know when I am already cooking… that will be the time I have a cooking and recipe blog.

    Thanks to this post and reminding of personal healthcare. I do have a cooking recipe blog. Actually I plan someday, that I will overhaul my blog to emphasize more on the value of healthy cooking rather than focusing on the recipes alone… I’m just new to blogging and I find it more sexy…

    Being a devout carnivore, I love red meat. I tried being vegetarian once, I think I made it past breakfast but by lunchtime the urge was too much. Yeah, it might not be good for us, but it’s delicious. I try not to let my daughter eat too much of it though.
