For the record, shrimp has to go. Bye bye, shrimp!

(2,289 posts)I could give up steak I suppose, provided there's an exception if it's the chicken fried steak variety. I mean, the chicken part of the moniker is still ok

(68,460 posts)I'd rather have chicken 10 other ways.
It would be easy for me to give up fried chicken. I don't eat it now!
debm55
(30,912 posts)I pretty much don't eat steaks any more. The cost here for a good steak is ridiculous so it would be special occasion only. Don't eat much beef either. Chicken (duck and goose), pork and fish wre the mainstays.

(30,912 posts)If I never ate them again I wouldn't miss them. Too messy & fatty for me.

(55,941 posts)After saving my life (I had two coronary arteries 99% clogged, and didn't even know it, due to low blood pressure), a cardiologist told me I don't break down cholesterol well, and had to give up red meat immediately. If it walks on four legs, don't touch it. Steak and ribs were out. Shrimp was not good, and nor were fried foods. Ergo............
For the most part, I gave up all of the above, along with butter, eggs, and cheese. I was later told I could have cheese and eggs in moderation.
Luckily my wife is a gourmet chef, along with her other positive attributes, and she does wonders with turkey, chicken and fish. She has some vegetarian tricks up her sleeve as well. That she was able to adapt from one day to the next is best demonstrated by the fact that I am still here to tell the tale.
