I’m another “always.” I think this is what most of us mean when we say we’re carnivores.
I eat a sausage link for breakfast. If I get hungry before lunch, I eat some ham. I have meat for lunch, possibly with nothing else. No bread, no veggie. Meat for supper.
If I make stir fry, I put two or more kinds of meat into it. I snack on cold bacon. I only eat pizza with meat on it.
Now, I know this is unhealthy. I absolutely hate most vegatables. I have to force myself to eat them. I “hide” vegatables by mixing them in with meat and rice, or by blending them up and putting them into meatloaf.
If there’s meat in my breakfast, it’s incidental. Two slices of bacon on the side or bits of ham in my omelette. But lunch is often cold cuts or a chicken breast, and dinner usually features meat. So most days I’ll have two meat-centered meals, on average.
I put less than once a week. I realized the other day that the only time I get meat is when I eat out…I never have meat in my house anymore. I try to eat out once a week but that doesn’t always happen. I do get pizza once a week but I don’t always get meat on it.
I’m not a vegetarian at all. I eat plenty of dairy and am trying to eat more eggs. I just am losing my taste for meat. Unless it’s nicely cooked at a decent restaurant then bring it on!
I voted “less than once a week,” though that’s sort of misleading. Most days I have meatless breakfasts, lunches, and dinners; my dinner salad includes small chunks of turkey ham and egg whites. I don’t consider those the main component.
