There is no clear cut decision

Eating meat has always been tradition, I think even though there are now healthier alternatives people will still eat meat. After all who can change such a long-standing tradition. Meat has also been people main source of protein; it has also been incorporated into many dishes. This is one of the reasons why it was so difficult back then to really be a vegetarian.
However with tofu becoming the new “meat”, it doesn’t mean that those who were always a meat eater will make a smooth transition. Tofu doesn’t have the same properties as meat, like taste. I actually had a veggie burger and preferred that taste than the actual meat. And that’s because I rarely eat meat like that, making that transition won’t be that hard to me.
Yet, there are those that only eat meat, heck they practically created the Angus burger for them. They are the type that is the meat expert, the can easily tell when the meat is medium rare or thoroughly cooked just by looking at them. Also they are the upper class (rich) they can just by trainers that can help them lose the weight they gain.
But even doctors agree meat is healthy, I watched a news report about how the cave man can outrun the fastest Olympic runner. Cavemen mainly ate meat, and they were healthier than we are today. Does this suggest that we have to give up our favorite meat? NO, it suggests that we should be careful in how we prepare our meals. Even with tofu there is always that person who wanted a little extra and add in the wrong thing (like a sauce whose calories is like 1000).
SO I go back to my title in saying there is no clear-cut answer, it’s all about how we as individuals prefer to eat. There are many good things about meat as there are bad, but it is not enough to throw it aside. Economically speaking this is how many countries even make money, is it right to simply have them lose their main source of income, because we just decided to all be “healthier” which I think will become a fad, heck even Olympic players love their meat.
