I can’t stand lean meat.

I don't like fat meat. My younger son takes after me; after dinner, we both have big chunks of fat remaining on our plates.

I went to a nutrition talk about seven years ago where I learned more than my sum of knowledge about nutrition up to that point. The speaker was a nutrition grad from the University of Dublin who openly wished he'd never signed a contract to work in the exercise section of a cruise ship.

He spoke very negatively about the US food industry. One thing he said is that the chemicals used in beef are horrible for health. He said the good news is they settle in the beef fat, so if you avoid the fat, you avoid most of the chemicals. I've found in life that if something makes sense, it's usually true. Since then, I've avoided beef fat (haven't had even one hamburger all these years) and I feel better and it's been easier to manage my weight.

Me, too. It’s the texture I dislike.

Plenty of flavor in lean meat if it’s not cooked to death. And plenty of ways to add moisture/flavor if needed.
