^I used to love bacon now I'm more like "meh".

I prefer poultry and fish / seafood personally , I find it has more flavour.

Pork tastes sickly as does Lamb and Beef has as much flavour as water does to me, but I had cravings for steak the other day.  :orly: :orly:

If you had a craving for steak you may need iron. Usually when our bodies craves something it means there is some nutrient in it we need. I sometimes crave pumpkin seeds :D

and as for bacon ?

 :thumbup:

I probably am craving steak , I don't eat red meat a lot and don't really eat other foods with iron.

Now my craving for steak has come back.  :(
I'll just diagnose myself as Goddess of the Universe and have done with it. Hell with autism!  :green: :zoinks:

nice is just something written on biscuits.

Why is bacon the "king" of meats, when it is usually added to food (including other meats) in the same way salt is?

You hit the nail on the head.

Try eating without any salt for a week. And then you will appreciate how important salt is.

I consume animal flesh on a daily basis. I also hunt down and kill them without mercy every respective hunting season.

Doves, deer, turkey, quail, etc. I am a predator.

It definitely is. When I was younger I used to get leg cramps in the middle of the night which used to wake me up suddenly. I asked the doctor about it and he said I should eat more salt.

Now I am taking lithium and again, a good amount of salt is needed in my diet, I am not to opt for the "low salt" version of foods.

They do indeed. I used to get cramps often in my calves and found that pointing my toes upwards used to ease them.

I've had reoccurring cramps in my foot lately.

is there actually any  reason why some people still eat meat in this day and age? because i can't think of one.

the benefits of being vegetarian are obvious:

1. it's healthier - you are less likely to develop heart disease or even cancer, most food scares tend to be related to meat (rather than dairy or anything else) and you are less likely to get food-poisoning from badly prepared / out-of-date food.

2. it's kind to animals.  8)

3. it's more environmentally friendly (growing vegetables uses less resources than producing meat).

i'm just curious to know if there are any reasons why people eat meat, other than that they think it tastes nice.

Just read this again.

I fucking laughed. If you're still here, might you be willing to show me some evidence for your claim?

I like meat. I have no issue with animals dying and ending up inside my stomach. If I had to join in that process further to accomplish that end I would have no issue.
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.
