PORTERHOUSE OR MIXED FRUIT AND VEGGIE SALAD

I am becoming a bit frustrated with the pushing by the liberal/vegan world on the safety of meat in our diets.

I for one have never been made ill by a medium rare steak (be it beef, venison, elk or buffalo) to my knowledge I have never become ill by tainted fowl (turkey, chicken or duck), I have eaten ceviche (homemade, and throughout the Western-hemisphere) and never once upchucked. I did have scallops at a very posh and fancy restaurant in Houston once which had me on the john with my head in a trash can.

Eaten raw veggies and fruits pose a high risk for human pathogens, this potential remains about the same whether the veggies and fruit are cut, sliced, skinned, shredded, or minimally processed. Two of the biggest dangers are from sprouted seeds and raw veggie and fruit juices.

The danger comes in the form of bacteria, viruses and parasites. Salmonella, E Colli, and protozoan infestation are just some of the known contaminates in fruits and veggies. How healthy is the Jack La lane juicer now vs an In and Out Double Double?

Not only do you have these deadly pathogens but fruits and vegetables are loaded with pesticide contaminates which have all had very sad results when tested on lab animals. Peaches, apples, bell peppers, celery nectarines, strawberries, cherries, grapes, spinach, lettuce potatoes and bananas are among the most heavily contaminated of all. These popular items have multiple carcinogenic pesticides on them. All fruits and veggies show some sign of pesticide contamination.

So just let me eat something that bleeds when it it is being processed and I will let you tear the fruit from the mother tree and rip the carrots from mother earth and we will all be happy.
