My search for the holy grain of meat, not really:)

Feb 25, 2011

I have been looking for soft meats to substitute for my protein shakes. This week has resulted in a complete failure. I don't mind.(Not too much) I have had several options of meat to choose from and this week it was ground beef with taco seasoning from the cafeteria. Okay, lets stop here and examine what I have actually done. Eaten meat from the cafeteria that I work at.  I didn't even have much. I knew my limit and stuck to that. Not one of my better choices!! First I found out, after becoming very ill, and dumping all throughout the day, that it is not real meat. It is some kind of by product mix. Ewwww!!! (I say that now after I got sick, because it smelled really good yesterday.) I know my new stomach is very sensitive to different seasonings and meat, but one thing that I heard and I am starting to believe is that I have to consume expensive cuts of meat. The low end stuff is not lean enough for proper digestion and may cause some uncomfortable reactions. Running to the restroom at work for long periods time is never cool.

So back on the horse with my search for a better meat. I am always looking for something that is not so greasy when cook and retains it's own moisture. It is always good to be able to add moisture to the meat, but if it retains it's own it makes it much healthier choice.(Turkey grilled, Chicken rotisseries, and fish baked) It is not easy, but as I edge closer to three months the soft food section of creativity grow slimmer and slimmer. I will continue the seach not only for a better grain of meat, but also the course of action for my health.
