Also, I think that a magor reason why people claim that meat in our diets is bad for us is because most people eat the poor quality, impure, cheaper meats with gristle, bones etc in them as opposed to the more expensive, higher quality meats.
Processed meat is everywhere and I hate it! But it's just easy, like making ham sandwiches you just peel it off and put it in. It's where I think most people that eat meat will suffer from eating meat.
