Hello guys and dolls, and welcome to Nero's Pointless Poll of the Day!

Chicken or beef?

I prefer fish myself (so does my cat). Beef is good too, and while I do enjoy the taste of chicken, sometimes in the middle of a bite, my alektorophobia will flare up (What are you eating! Step away from the chicken and nobody gets hurt!) and I'll run to wash my mouth out.

So, what's on your plate, chicken or beef?

Nero

I prefer fish to anything else when it comes to animal protein.  Foul comes in second.

I like beef well enough, but I'll take something else if given a choice. 

Hubby likes steaks.  We seldom eat them if I'm doing the shopping and fixing.

Cindi

Vegetarian. Must be twenty five years since I knowingly ate a piece of dead animal.

i'll only eat beef if it is super well done, so i picked chicken.  don't eat fish.

Lips that touch dead animals will never touch mine.

I love chicken in day to day life, so I picked it.

That said, NOTHING on earth beats a thick, juicy, rare steak.  Ever.  (In my books...)

Vegetarian.....

Although I do eat fish sometimes.

Buffy

I personally eat chicken every day. Boiled boneless/skinless lowfat chicken with boiled veggies for lunch and dinner. I like steak (mmm, filet mignon) but I don't eat it much anymore. I eat such small protions anyway, most steakhouses serve 8+ ounces. 4 ounces would be prefect for me :)

Vegequarian.  I eat fish now and then.

I just like to eat! (much to my sorrow sometimes).  I still eat even if I'm depressed, I have to be half dead to lose my appetite.

I wish there would have been an "All of the Above" choice.  That's what I would have chosen.

hugs & smiles

oh I just meant - which is your favorite?

prefer fish

mostly have chicken

seldom, the evil beef

Why deny it? I'm very fond of steaks... ;D  I do like beef but hardly eat it anymore.  Nowadays it is turkey breast mostly, sometimes tuna salad, a sea bass stake, or chicken wings.  Recently I just starve myself to death....

tink :icon_chick:

Chicken, though it's not often. I never touch any other meats other than turkey on occasion and ham on Easter. Never beef, and I can't stomach seafood much beyond shrimp in eggrolls, lol.

I otherwise live on rice, pasta, salads, cheeses, cereals, assorted veggies...

Thats a good point!

Nero, start a poll mate about the sexual preferences of Chickens and Cattle, if they prefer to be eaten by men or women and wether they like to be wrapped in paper or plastic !

It will compliment some of your recent polls!

OK.. I need Coffee to wake up from this nightmare

Buffy

OK. I see the pointless poll posted and I go cool. Then I open it up and I get.

QuoteQuestion: Do you prefer chicken or beef?

Simple enough. Then I look at the answers and I see:

Quotechicken 
beef 
fish 
vegetarian   

Which makes me laugh!  You are a hoot. I voted for seafood, but my second choice is vegetarian.  I never eat beef.
 

Vegetarian girl here :)

where's the beef at dude? :laugh:  I lke pork to.

I'm a vegetarian but ocassionally eat salmon.

Happily vegetarian.  :angel:

added an option, and it messed up the vote count, so revote please.

I love beef  ;D

Eeeewwwwww.....meat?? Yuck!!!! NEVER touch the stuff!!

Peace and love,

Beef!

"wheres the beef"   :)
got to love it.

Audrey

Bacon is good to though.

Hate to admit it, but I'm a southern girl and I have had a lifelong love affair with the pig.

N~

Mostly beef here. Not particularly fond of the taste of fish, pork and chicken mostly equal...and being vegetarian I'd probably be even more skinny from not eating...since I don't eat most vegetables I know.

Ehm... If these are the options: Beef. ^^ It's very nourishing, and tasty!
Of course; it has to be red, because.. Grey meat is a life wasted. (No nourishment, no flavour.)

I like fish, too, for about the same reason. Most fish, like beef, are packed with vitamins and minerals.

Don't like pork or chicken, that much.. It's not as tasty, and it doesn't really sate well.. Again, because of nourishment. :P

If I had to pick my absolute favourite corpse, it'd be veal.  :angel: It's just so... Full.  ;D

As for vegetarians disliking people who do eat meat: Ehm.. Well; that's just hypocrisy, really, and it doesn't get you anywhere.. At least we eat more healthy, and humans, by nature, are hunters first and gatherers second.. So yeah. ???

turkey.

I eat lots of veggies and salads, buy I also eat chicke3n, fish, and a little beef.  I am on a low carb, low fat diet, so I eat some form of meat once daily.  When I eat beef, it is the most low in fat I can get.  I eat very little bread, and one galss of tomato juice daily.

That seems to keep the weight off for me.

I love love love salmon!!!



Bagels and lox sound so good right now.

Pork is my favorite. But I'll eat all of them depending on how they're prepared. I couldn't have a steady diet of any of them though. Gotta have variety.

I didn't crawl my way to the top of the food chain to graze like a goat.  I'll eat anything the kitchen/craft services is dishing out. 

People who say there is no such thing as a free lunch have never worked in show biz.

well, pigs are my friends. (https://www.susans.org/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cosgan.de%2Fimages%2Fsmilie%2Ftiere%2Fc015.gif&hash=c0afc6d5033b9b3828ed746984b86e2f5d4495ff) Turkeys on the other hand, not so much. (https://www.susans.org/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cosgan.de%2Fimages%2Fmidi%2Ftiere%2Fg070.gif&hash=e5df99daf10bb45dcc38800ec74a8ef76ee14c85)

Actually, bacon is the crack cocaine of food.

Oh dear

I'm just about to tuck into a medium-rare kangaroo fillet, with some plum sauce and saute potatoes.

But I also like, fish, chicken, beef, lamb, vegies, emu, crocodile.

Cindy

I love beef, but I actually eat more chicken.  Hate fish.  Blech! :icon_weee:  Don't like bacon or ham either, but when it comes to Chinese food, pork is my favorite.  And my dad makes a pork chop w/potato scallops that's to die for.  ;D

Must say, amazing the response rate you're getting on a 2-year-old thread.  ;)

steak steak steak steak steak steak...

preferably served very rare.. almost bloody... :D

Miniar, you are my kind of guy.

Steak, blood rare.  Hamburger must be well done.  Bacon crisp.  Pork well done.  Chicken, deep fried.  Fish, flaky not over done.  Vegetables, tender crisp.  Fruit in a pie.  ;D

I have began to eat more salads, I get in that kind of mood, every so often.  But when possible give me a steak.

Janet

No one has mentioned Spam!!

I will eat fish every day if possible. Almost anything from the sea is great food.  A quote from a bumper sticker: I love cats, tastes just like chicken.

Although I do love fish.

Cooking a steak to well done should be punishable by law.

Vegetarian here. If it bleeds I don't eat it.

I don't have a preference as it all depends on the preparation!

I suppose the only equal comparison would be "raw".  In which case fish would win my vote because I just love sushi! :)

Im a vegetarian so none =/

I chose beef.
I would've chosen fish or chicken but.. when I think about it, I like beef more than the both of them.  ;D
I could never been a vegetarian. Not because I couldn't live without eating meat, its because I live with a carnivorous chef. XD

I chose beef, since I do love steak, nice and medium-rare, preferably with a little garlic and butter (even better to have garlic butter). Gotta love pea-meal bacon and what most people refer to as bacon... Yes Tekla, it is a drug. Otherwise, I'll eat anything that was mentioned in the poll, and even things that were not. Camel, bison, caribou, deer, ibex, rabbit, hare, etc. The list goes on and on. My personality is such that if I went to another nation and dog, cat or any other common household animal was being served, I would order it out of curiosity. I am adventurous bordering on bizarre/sickening to some.

vegetarian ::)

I prefer Vegan. But am not strict about it.

I enjoy chicken, some fish, and rarely I enjoy beef. I just put up with other meats. After spending a few years being a vegetarian, I never got my appreciation for meat back. Still cant eat anything that looks like it use to be alive.

A large (1lb) well hung beef steak seared but still blue on the inside please.  :laugh:

A woman after my own heart.  And a Big bake sweet potato with about a ton of real butter to go with.

I prefer fish or pork.

Can I just say all? I like meat in general, Fish, chicken, veal, moose, deer, alagator,ECT. WAIT! Duck, I love duck!!! oooh and seared tuna Octopus Ostridge...

Fish and chicken are my favorites. I'm not sure which one to give my vote.... uhhh.... I guess I'll give it to fish.

Jenny and Janet you will have to over here to eat at the Elephant and Castle. It's a pub, hotel restaurant that specialises in steak. When I first came to Australia (36 yrs ago) I was taken there by work friends. The piece of meat I got was the size that my Mum in the UK  would have roasted for a family of five.

We have been there regularly over the years and they have kept the standard.

I went back recently with some girl friends and again we got half a cow each.  I realise  Janet , that serves in the USA are massive but lordy, these were so large. I had a fillet mignon, that filled a dinner plate, another plate arrived with chips (french fries) and a third for the salad bar. 

Awesome, and I have mine medium, the point where they stop mooing and start complaining, and covered in Mushrooms and gravy.

Now what's for dinner tonight?

Cindy

Butterfly Prawns (shrimp to the Yanks here) , chips and salad tonight. 
A nice Scotch Fillet steak, lamb roast , or BBQ chicken would all come close though.
Karen.

I put "chicken".   I don't really eat meat, but I'm not a vegetarian either.  I live mostly off of grains and the occasional fruit, and sometimes meat.

i voted for chicken, that's my favorite by far on that list. especially barbecue chicken!  :P

In order of most eaten:

Vegetarian
Fish
Chicken
Pork
Beef

What do Vegetarians taste like? :laugh:

Pork

I'm not making that up...someone tried it...>.>

Chicken

D: I have to CHOOSE?! Madness, I say!

In a very likely to change order: beef, pork, poultry, vegetarian, fish.
Usually depends on how it's done. o.o

I like fish sticks. I like to put them in my mouth.
But anything else... yuck! D:
Very picky about vegetables... I like them raw. Beans and peas and such, cooked, sure -- but stuff like broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, and the like -- I only like them raw. Corn's pretty good raw, but it's good cooked, too. o.o (or is it a grain. hggggnnn.) 

Used to only eat chicken and fish, pork on occasion, but never beef.  Now I'm strictly vegetarian.

I'm going to be awkward and say lamb. :P With mint sauce. Yummy.

Seafood is best food.

Vegetarian... Vegan to be, again.

I  will take all the meat, plkease keep the plant stuff.

Quote from: Zenda on July 07, 2011, 02:28:30 PM

I'm a "Vege 'nut'erian!"

A plant is just that -which Mother Nature 'planted'- nowhere else to go-
except to be pulled up or plucked and eaten- which is its natural flow...

They're not designed to run from danger –that's why they are meant to stay-
and when ripe and ready they should be eaten or they will rot away...

Unlike a plant, a sentient being  is not rooted in the ground-
they're designed to  flee from danger to a place more  safe and sound...

So if it runs on land, swims in the sea, or on wings takes to the air-
for me it's not a food source – they know  fear and so I care...

For sentient beings once full of life I feel this must be said-
to feast upon their body parts – one becomes a graveyard for their dead!

"We are what we eat!" Some say –Well at least I'm not a gluts-
along with a little fruit and vegetables-I'm quite happy being nuts!

Well that's me in a "nut" shell !

Plants are not so defenseless as you point them out to be. The make up some potent alkaloids that more often than not than not kill you, juts try to eat one of your 'cumbaya" green tomatoes and see what happens to you.

Hard one. I'm not vegan, but I like all the others. Certainly I support ethical treatment of food animals, but it always bothers me the way people seem to have no respect for plants. Just because their anatomy is very different from animals doesn't mean they aren't still creatures deserving our respect. Obviously we gotta eat, and it is natural to eat both plants and animals, but don't think that just because plants don't have an animal nervous system it means that they don't mind being ripped out of the ground and eaten. Poor things don't even get the chance to attempt escape.

Point being, respect all creatures that died so you could live, plant and animal alike.

Kia Ora,

::) Why is it "animal flesh/meat" eaters tend to be so aggressive ?  Was it something you ate?  ;)  ;D

Kia Ora Pinkfluff,

At first I thought , yes you have a serious point there, and I agree, it's important to "respect" all living things tree, plants, animals etc...But then when I read the highlighted red part, it made me smile... ;D

But I have no wish to get into an ethical debate re: the animal verses the plant kingdom, because it all depends on how one defines "sentient being" and from what I gather it means different things to different people...

For example from a Buddhist perspective [from one Buddhist school of thought that is,I should point out not all Buddhists are vegetarians] a sentient being possesses a "mind" whereas an "automaton" does not...That is, one could say "plants don't "mind" if we eat them  ;) ;D [excuse the pun]. However, any animal whose survival strategy and behaviour appears to depend on the avoidance of "suffering" [rather than mere reflex actions] I assume to be sentient...

Kia Ora Kate,

::) Studying botany can be quite fascinating...When certain plants have developed defenses such as toxins [poisonous to humans] then "naturally" humans and other animals who know this tend to avoid them...Also closely studying/comparing the digestive systems of carnivores, omnivores, and herbivores, to humans can be a real eye opener...

Kate why is it do you think animal flesh eaters [humans]  "cook" their meat?

::) Have you seen what happens when a "natural" omnivore comes across fresh "road kill" Kate ?  ;) ;D

Metta Zenda :)

I know one thing.  I won't be basing a Vegetable Soup on Celeriac again!  If I hadn't included a couple of carrots I would have had a tasteless bowl of hot water with various sorts of white lumps! :P

The leftovers will get a good dose of kabana and anything I can think of tomorrow. ???

Karen.

fish, bear, whale, all taste great raw (sashimi!). i haven't tasted raw horse meat yet, but i've heard it's really tasty and only gets better the older the horse is

I can't believe pork had the least votes. :'( Also chicken is overrated. >.>

Quote from: Zenda on July 07, 2011, 11:45:00 PM
it all depends on how one defines "sentient being"

Yeah I'm sure everyone's own beliefs play into it. My own Pagan beliefs say that every lifeform deserves a measure of respect. Obviously a bacteria is not the same as a wolf or a tree, but some plants are older/bigger/more complex than some animals. Compare a large tree to a sponge. I think it is a slippery slope when one gets into what has a mind, what counts as a mind, etc. What about a human with severe brain damage? What about a sufficiently complex artificial "mind"? Are they sentient? I guess that's why I prefer to just avoid asking that question. To me plants and animals alike have both natural and spiritual importance.

This is more along my line of thinking. Obviously, humans have to eat something. If they don't eat animals, they're going to have to eat plants. I think if plants were the only lifeforms meant for food, we wouldn't have carnivores who need a diet of meat. Animal products also provide a lot of nutrients for us humans as well.

I'm not a vegetarian, but am often mistaken for one since I only eat the occasional hamburger or steak. I don't eat any fowl products including eggs (except in bakery goods and such and maybe the obligatory bite of turkey once a year for the national holiday.) I eat a lot of seafood though. I simply don't have much taste for red, white, or any other color of meat. I probably eat a steak or hamburger once a year. And even then I'm very particular how it's done and have to be in the mood for it.
Man was meant to eat fish... and pasta.  :laugh:

Kia Ora PF,

While we are on the "subject" more "food" for "thought"...

::) The slippery slope is not so much what "has" a mind, but what "is" the mind and how it differs from the "brain"...The brain being "physical matter" and the mind "subjective experience"...

both chicken and pork are delicious if they got healthy and varied food when alive. if they didn't, then they never taste any good. which is why i rarely eat either, only way to know they'll be tasty is to raise them yourself

I like beef the best but i also eat chicken,fish,pork and veggies.

Well I donno about you, but this girl needs a big*** steak once in a while!

I was vegetarian for three years, and due to severe iron deficiency compounded with anemia (which I've had both of these conditions all my life, but the lack of meat made them a whole lot worse) it nearly killed me. I was very unhealthy.  Other people can do the whole vegan/vegetarian thing and not get sick, and that's awesome.  As for me, I can't.  I'll literally die. 

Turkeys and cows should avoid me, lol.   ::)  But chickens (for the most part) and especially pigs, they are safe.   ;D

Sorry for rambling.  Just felt like sharing.   ::)

turkey or beef
...i tried going vegan once...it didnt end well
(and i didnt gain any powers)

I've been vegetarian for 31 years (well, except I had a year's fish break in 1990) but since I've been on hormones, a craving for fish has appeared out of nowhere and is getting stronger every day.

I'm about to experiment with hemp protein powder to see if more protein/aminos is what's missing. It's keeping me awake at night >:(.

Chicken.

Beef is ok, mainly in hamburger...I view roasts, steaks, etc as a "treat", have it once every few months.

Elk is the best, but takes a LOT of work to get.

Incidentally, the more fem I become, the more sensitive I am to the animal. I've always "sensed" the animal's life while I've been eating it (and yes, it's disturbing), but it's even more so now. I think I will be trying out a vegetarian diet soon...or at least try to be less a carnivore.

mashed pork
chicken solid
rabbit and game animal is also great

Chicken is the best but don't buy big one that looks abnormally huge. They have parts they aren't meant to and bones that aren't joined and they are a big hollow rib cage(with a disturbing array of bones in it). :'(

I love fish, so I chose that as my "preference".  However, chicken follows closely behind it.  I do not eat beef or pork very often, and [no offense], I could never even dream of becoming a vegetarian.

  Beef or chicken with a healthy side of veggies.
  Joelene

I like variety and can't really say I like one over the other  :)  I do however enjoy finding different ways to prepare each one

Vegetarian mostly, but I like fish sometimes.

I like chicken the most and I think it has something to do with my childhood phobia of meat dishes. I'm still very picky when it comes to meat and I absolutely hate those scrunchy parts in it, whatever they are. Those always make me gag instantly. Chicken has always been the safest option considering that.

I like Beef.

beef is one of those sinfull sides of why I fail being a vegatarian.  ::)

For me, it would be beef comes first, then second would be chicken, then pork. I avoid fish, don't care for it.

Had to vote pork because of bacon.

Quote from: Bethany Dawn on September 16, 2013, 07:21:59 PM
I love seafood!!!

Me too  :)

I would have baked salmon with lemon goop (basically what happens to lemon slices on top) every day if I could. Alas I'm not a millionaire and I have to settle for tuna (the American way, mayo, mustard, seasonings and so forth for sandwiches) most of the time, but that's still great too lol.

Lately though I'm all about crock-pot beef stew. It's perfect. The only way I really like beef.

I hate swine.

Chicken, all the time

Especially with chips (fries) and ketchup!

Definitely pork and chicken
Fish is ok , but I don't eat it very often .
As about beef I can't eat it at all .

I wish I could eat prime filet mignon or dry aged New York drizzled with Bearnaise sauce all the time, but that's really bad for you.

I do vegetarian meals most often now and only succumb to the inner carnivore rarely.  Or medium rarely...

I've been a vegetarian for over twenty years now.

I love Chicken.

I like all food and thus all meat, but chicken's my favorite. Unless we're talking bbq, in which case RIBS.

I love pork.

Please don't read anything sinister into that just because pork supposedly tastes like human flesh...

Out of those, Beef. Out of other meats, it would be between ribs, steak, and lamb.

i love chicken and turkey
the only fish i eat are tuna and rarely halibut
I don't eat red meat or pork
i will eat lettuce
However i will tease my friends if they eat anything that looks like a leaf. as bugs eat leaves
i tell them that their having bug salad

I've been vegan for I think 6 years now. Before that beef was always my favorite (in grilled steak form)

I'm surprised that almost 50% of people voted vegetarian. (The tally percents are deceptive) 47/110 report vegetarian right now., but the others overlap.

Could that be because a vegetarian diet is 'cleaner' and supposed to make transition easier (at least for MTFs)? Or is it more likely that people who are actively health conscious are more willing to go through introspection and accept being trans* thus making a larger portion of the community vegetarian. Or a third reason could be that people who respond to polls are more likely to be vegetarian than average...

Ok I'm rambling now. Its late and I should know better...

Just for reference I fall into that second category.

I personally think it might be that trans people tend to be more empathetic and aware of our impact on other livimg things than the average person.  I have no problem with death or meat eating, it is the way we go about it with factory farming.  Once I saw that, it was over, there was nothing else to consider. 

I've been vegetarian for about 7 years now! I was vegan for about 2 years until I rekindled my love affair with fancy cheeses  ;)

I think we need to keep in mind that people who have strong food preferences or restrictions are probably more likely to click on and respond to a thread about food. It might also be that transpeople are more likely to be vegetarian than cispeople, of course, but it might not.

I answered this poll a long time ago but didn't comment. I'm mostly vegan but I love(d) beef. When I was younger and more impulsive I would buy steak cuts and eat them raw, and I miss that.

Excellent and valid point. I do stand by my comment about transgender people being more empathetic and aware of our impact on other people though.  Probably because we are on the bottom of the social food chain

I'm not really a fan of meet. Chicken and turkey are the only meats I actually like. Maybe one day I'll actually end up vegetarian, I don't know.  But I only eat meat from animals that have already been killed, and turned into meat. I never go hunting or fishing for it, because I guess you could say I'm a weirdo who doesn't believe in killing an animal.

I prefer beef. In the last few years I've stopped eating pork, idk why but my body just doesn't seem to like it.
I also don't eat shellfish.

I voted vegetarian but only because that's the closest to my current diet...I eat meat sometimes but rarely. I think fish is my overall preference in regards to meat as it's pretty easy to digest, especially tuna which I used to have as a kid. I can't believe now I had ham sandwiches at school every day...things have definitely changed since then. Come to think of it sausages was one of my favourite meals as a child! I can't remember the last time I had a sausage! Certainly haven't this year...I used to totally love sausages come to think of it...

I'm fond of soups and I used to have quite a lot of the meat variations of soups last year, beef broth, chicken broth, etc, but the actual meat content in these is like below 5% of the whole soup, so it's not that much in comparison really. But I'd recommend these if you want to eat meat but not too much. It's kind of meat watered down really (literally, what with soup being a large part water!)

I voted fish, because where I live is a seafood nirvana.

I like all the choices in the poll however, it's all good..

C -

It is all good... Fish, beef, chicken, pork.

Most veggies are good too.   :)

I prefer fish, and lean a little bit to the more into veggies side.

Except you do not like catfish!

I like big scallops.  Not a fish, but good.

In order of preference highest first

Fish
Chicken
Pork
Lamb
Beef

Beef never high on my list, for some reason I lacked the ability to digest it properly all my life until the last 10 years so it's a habit not to eat much cow, or much of the four-legged variety of animal to be honest, just in case my guts take a dislike. Fish and chicken are much better. Crab is ok too.   

I tend to be vegetarian through the week. On the weekend I like a good serve of meat.
I normally dont drink during the week but on weekends visitors force me to drink red wine or white wine or beer.(LoL).

In order of preference.

1.Eye fillet beef steak/ Shiraz or Cab Sav.

2.Fillet of local caught or bought fish/ Sauvignon Blanc.

3. The best entree for crabs is cold beer

4.Lamb/ glass of red.

5.Chicken( prefer duck or local goose) /beer or red or white

6.Pork preferably roast with glass of red.

7. Lie down on the couch afterwards and breathe really shallow.

I'm an omnivore, I'll eat anything. I have noticed my tastes have changed lately though, now I lean more heavily toward fish, veggies & fruit.
