[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Also I think the majority of people should just limit their meat intake to 4-8 oz a day and 1 cheat day a month for a big meat laden meal. I think that would go a long way. You don't have to do 100% plant based but it should be the majority of your diet. [/quote]

Isn't this what normal non-vegetarians eat anyway? I don't know anyone who eats 16 ounces of beef a day. People usually eat a mix of beef, poultry, dairy, fish throughout the week with grains, vegetables, fruits etc. [/quote]
Let’s see... my family eats:
Turkey sausage at breakfast
Lunch meat or tuna at lunch
Chicken or fish or beef for dinner
That’s a lot of meat.[/quote]

Do you eat sausage every day, year round?

I am refeeding my daughter with anorexia. She is on a very large, strict meal plan. She eats precisely 8 Oz of meat per day. Four at lunch, four at dinner. Dinner might be beef, pork, fish, chicken, shrimp...  Lunch is turkey.

Her breakfast protein is eggs, and she also eats cheese and nuts throughout the day. If she doesn’t need more than 8 Oz per day, I’m having a hard time imagining people needing more.

Are Americans on average actually eating 10 Oz of beef per day? Or is that much sold and then divided by our population, you get 10? I’m just wondering if there is a lot of waste baked into that number.[/quote]
