Is there a term for people who eat beef but no other meat ?!


Question: Is there a term for people who eat beef but no other meat ?
Hello :-) I eat beef but I don't eat any other meat because I am afraid of contamination or food poisoning ( I have OCD) is there a term used for this ? Thank you.

Answers:

it's the same term as for people who only eat chicken: normal or omnivore.

If you're determined to have some sort of label, you'll have to give up all meat. Or only eat fish and you can be a pescetarian.

You should be more concerned about getting sick from fresh vegetables. Way more people die in the US from eating fresh veggies than from eating meat products. The meat industry is highly regulated and a USDA inspector watches the processing of meat closely. Most scares come from ground beef. It's been handled quite a bit, but even then it's mostly recalled and few, if anybody, gets sick.

On the other hand, there aren't enough FDA inspectors to walk through the hundreds of acres of fields to look at the veggies that will wind up in your supermarket. Plus the imported fresh fruits and veggies aren't grown under US scrutiny.

Don't be scared of your food. We have the safest food system in the world here in the US. Is it perfect? No. Cook your food properly and you'll be fine.



Naw...OCD is all youd call it.
You know beef can be contaminated, right?
Infact, a large deal of it is contaminated...with cow poop.
(I got that information from food inc.(movie) and fast food nation(book)).

Your Welcome.



The term is somewhere along the lines of you eat other meat too, so quit lying and quit trying to get attention and stop posting inappropriate questions for the VEGETARIAN and VEGAN section.



Omnivore.

According to the Centers for Disease Control, food-borne illnesses originating from beef products account for 20,000 hospitalizations and over 600 deaths annually in the United States.



No there is no special term for people who just eat beef. Is this a serious question or are you just trolling the vegetarian section? Anyway, the term is omnivore.



Yeah. Are you ready for it? The term is omnivore. The exact same term used for everybody who eats flesh.



You can get just as sick from beef as you can any other type of meat for one thing. There is no special name.



No. Beef is just as likely as anything else to give you food poisoning. Beef is where E. coli came from.



Beefeater or Yeoman Warder.



Yes, its the same term for people that eat cookies but not cake.



omnivore



...you are an obsessive compulsive beefatarian.......



meat eater.

LOL@ jen d you are evil!!



Well beef isnt exactly the best meat for you... I mean, if you are doing this for health, than its really pointless because red meat isnt the best! Try fish, its healthier. If you ate fish you would be a vegetarian but right now you are an omnivore.
