Burger or No Burger? That is the question...

Good morning! :-)

Rise and shine! It's Med-Setting time! lol. Today, I'd like to do something a little different. Instead of writing a new post, I'd like to have an intellectual debate. About what? you may ask...Well, yesterday, as I was watching Larry King Live, there was an in-depth and spirited debate to answer the question: Should meat, and most specifically hamburgers, be a part of the American diet?



My thoughts: "I believe that meat should be part of our diet. I feel this way b/c our body needs complete proteins, which are, proteins that contain all 9 essential amino acids in sufficient quantity and ratio for the body's needs. One of the primary sources of complete proteins is meat. Therefore, I don't think it's such a great idea to banish meat all together. On the other hand, I do believe that we should monitor our consumption of meat products. That's just my opinion."
With that being said, what are your thoughts? Do you believe meat, most specifically hamburgers, should be a part of the American diet?
