In reply to the discussion: Do you have any trouble eating chicken, in terms of [View all]laundry_queen
(8,646 posts)but I don't eat it a whole lot. I think different people may have sensitivities to different types of meat. For instance, my mom cannot eat beef. Makes her ill, but pork and chicken are fine with her. I love beef - eating it makes me feel better. But I can't eat much pork - more than a few bites results in instant stomach pain, gas, and I pay for it for days. My dad can eat everything. My brother is allergic to fish. Yes, family dinners were interesting, LOL.
I do wonder if it has to do with what is put IN the meat - for instance, my mom was raised on grass fed beef (she was raised on a farm where her dad raised and butchered his own cattle) and never had an issue until she was much older and bought mostly packaged beef from the store. I've started buying grass fed organic beef for myself about half the time - since I do love beef and can't afford organic ALL the time (I only eat it occasionally anyway), at least half the time should help a bit. The first roast I bought was melt-in-your-mouth tender, so different from the friggen leather I've been buying at the store. I'm certain the crap they feed the cattle is ruining the quality of the meat - and god knows what it does to your system. I'm sure it's the same for chicken.
