I've been banned from the Marshall Forum...

We're omnivores. There's some decent vegetarian food, it's just not enough to get all the nutrients you need without supplementing. My misses isn't a big fan of red meat overall. Personally, I could give up on red meat in favor of just fish and poultry. I'd miss good lamb chops though... She doesn't like seafood though.
We like our beef and pork. Chicken gets done a fair amount. And we’re working on the seafood. Something we both like. Lamb… have only done a few times.

We spent some time in Italy last summer. Primarily on the island of Sardinia. Sardinia is a Blue Zone. People routinely live to a 100. Part of that is they walk everywhere including up and down the mountains. So exercise. Another part is what they eat. Red meat is hyper expense on the island, so that’s saved for special occasions. Fresh vegetable are readily available as is fish…. Go figure. Surrounded by water. We brought back some ideas and have been trying to incorporate some of their ideas into our eating habits.

And this would be an example of a hijacked thread. :pound-hand:
 
In fairness my wife will cook meat she just won't eat it - both me & Michael will not eat vegetarian.
Nearest we get is a jacket potato!

That’s me and oysters. For the annual appreciation dinner at church we always did chili and oyster soup. I refuse to eat oysters. I have done it a couple times and frankly, I’d rather swallow snot. But this one year I was on the committee to cook the soups. No one wanted to do the oysters. We had the recipe. I can read. So it fell on me. But I had to have someone else taste it for seasoning. I wouldn’t taste it. Guess it turned out okay. People were coming back for seconds.
 
Will never forget my first Guinness "proper pour" it is so good..
Overall. Not a big beer fan. A few I’ll drink. But for me. Guinness tends to be too chewy for me. And no. When I do beer it’s not Lite beer. Probably will be something from Sam Adams or the Kona Brewing company from the Big Island.

Raw oysters are a big thing where I come from. I've tried them and the little sweet one are doable if I'm drunk enough, but the others I've tried were disgusting. I won't ever eat them again, not even the little sweet ones.
