I don't eat beef. It's unhealthy, expensive, bad for the environment/economy and is produced in a violent way.

Who says beef is unhealthy? We need the nutrients meat contains. (Or do you just not eat beef and eat other types of meat?)

Some studies say 'red' meat is bad for you. They conflict on exactly how much is bad for you, it's just there was one very recently that says that any at all increases mortality rates. I'm sure there's a thousand statistical caveats that weren't in the headline on that.

Yeah I read something similar recently that was something like any red meat increase heart problems by 20% or something outrageous like that. Needless to say, I've been avoiding beef recently, and have been preferring whole fish and shrimp.

Although I've heard for a while that it's not that red meat is a problem, but ground beef.
