Default Cooks Venture Chicken.

I’m a vegetarian. But like many major global corporations, I’ve outsourced the grass eating to other animals. Then I eat them.

Seriously, Kelly and I have reduced our red meat consumption over the years and replaced it with plant based protein. But I am a carnivore and love a good beef or better yet elk steak every so often. Delicious!

We are fortunate locally that grass-fed and organic meats are readily available. We find that organic food (half & half, meat, pasta, veggies, whatever) taste better these days. As recent as 10yr ago this was not the case.
That said, a nice porterhouse grilled rare-to-medium rare is about as good as it gets.

Tom, my motto in life has always been (when it comes to food) "Everything in moderation".

I can never be a vegetarian. The benefits of chicken are well documented and in some cultures, chicken soup is even called "the penicillin" for a good reason.

Happy Cooks Venture Chickens.

Of course they are oblivious as to their purpose in life but it is what it is....

As a naturally born and bred omnivore (nature intended it that way), I am deeply offended by the exclusion of the egg from Google salad. I’m not even going to mention the millions of chickens that are offended and hurt by such discrimination. I will be sure to let Google know how I feel about it.
