Guest guest Report post Posted May 26, 2005 We have a saying around our house and it goes like this, A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still. You all might want to check this out www.hado.net/Messages_from_Waterbook.html. It is fascinating and very enlightening. The book explains how thoughts, words and even music can change the molecular structure of the water molecules in our bodies which are 70% + water. It shows water taken from some of the most polluted rivers in the world and how the molecular structure was changed by having a monk pray over the water. My purpose in bringing this up is that, by praying over your food, you are changing the very essence of it. I recently had lead poisoning and needed to take a certain product to remove the heavy metals from my system but in the past, this product had caused an allergic reaction. My naturopath said I had to take it and suggested I pray over it and ask that anything harmful to my body be taken away. I did that and had no allergic reaction whatsoever.

Nina RE: Pork Well Alobar, you've gone and done it now, you've lit Nina's fuse but good this time. I'm with you. Nothing like a mouthful of pork, at least when that's what I want. In fact I think it's about time to light up my big ol' charcoal smoker again and slow cook some ribs. If there's one thing I get good and sick and tired of, it's vegetarians who can't keep their mouth shut and must proselytize us all to their religion, and that's what it is alright, a religion. Nina this is straight at you: You've been coming in here for a while now getting slowly more militant about your vegetarianism, and now you've really showed yourself but good by connecting meat eating to the destruction of the planet and everything else you don't like including Bush. You sound like you're beginning to foam at the mouth. You can eat anything you want to as far as I'm concerned, but when you start calling me a planet destroyer because of my diet, you have crossed the line. It never fails to amaze me that when a militant vegetarian comes into a forum like this, for a while a few meat eaters will apologize or make excuses about eating meat. The vegetarian then becomes more bold until finally they ALWAYS come out of the closet with all their rhetoric like you just did. It also is almost always true that most of the meat eaters won't say much at all about it because we tend to have an attitude of letting others do as they wish. But not vegetarians, nooooo!!!! They have to go and call all of us meat-eaters demented butchers who are destroying all that's holy! The wildest part of this is that it's always the vegetarians who spout hate and intolerance, while they accuse us meat eaters of being violent. You've shown yourself for the extremist that you are, and I suspect your influence here will wane. You are the kind of vegetarian who gives vegetarianism a bad name. Oh I'm sure you're going to have a good comeback for this, and will spew your venom all over me, just like you did to Alobar. I won't respond, because one encounter with a nut is enough. Besides, if you do, I'll know I got your goat. Pork; it's what's for dinner, right after I finish this steak. Oh and hand me one of those chicken wings. Hey is that fish over there?...

Guest guest Report post Posted May 27, 2005 This response doesn't make meat eaters look any better than vegetarians. ACtually, I am not a vegetarian, but I have often been mistaken for one because I eat so little meat. It's amazing how I get attacked for my food choices when I am not even the one to bring the food up. People question why I am not having meat, or why I substited a veggie dish at a restaurant. I don't question their plate of food, but the meat out of the mal, and suddenly people get defensive! I have found that many meat-eaters are the ones who attack and find it a personal affront that I chose to have a meatless meal. It's weird to me. They back off when I tell them I am not a vegetarian, BUT WHAT IF I WAS? I would have to suffer the onslaught further?? I have a friend who is a vegetarian and actually AVOIDS telling people or discussing it at all costs because of the grief she gets about it. I felt bad one day when I invited her to a party with me and a couple of people really were mean to her when THEY are the ones that asked about her eating a habits (I think they were trying to pick up on her at first even). She got those original comments about " time to light up the grill " or " im gonna eat a bloody side of cow " etc. SAd. And not very original. I have to hear it so often and I only CUT BACK on meat. Sheesh. So actually, meat eaters are just as guilty about name calling. In my limited life experience, the most hateful and intolerable people were not vegetarians. They can be found everywhere, no matter what your eating habits are. As a matter of fact, some were fanatical religious people. Now THERE is hypocrisy at its finest. I have read many things about how factory meat corps are detrimental to the environment. I don't thinnk its something she made up to insult anyone. I have read it in my different books. But the first time I found about it was when that cattle rancher was on Oprah Winfrey. I cant remember his name now, but he wrote that book The Mad Cowboy and the beef industry tried to sue Oprah and him. Does anyone remember that? Of course that got my attention and I read the bood which led me to look further into it. So maybe you are the kind of meat-eater that gives US a bad name. __________________________________________________ > > Well Alobar, you've gone and done it now, you've lit Nina's fuse but good > this time. > > I'm with you.

Guest guest Report post Posted May 28, 2005 I get my pastured, organic pork products right from the farm. I have met the farmers and the pigs and they consistantly produce healthful, flavorful products. They make a monthly delivery to the twin cities or you can find them at your natural food cooperative. Cheaper delivered than at the store! See their wwwebsite at: http://www.prairiefare.com/pastureshp.htm Enjoy, Bill Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest guest Report post Posted January 27, 2007 james: I began washing my leaf lard enfleurage today. .. I put my nose to the delicate scent and took a big sniff. It smelled just like...... PORK. No floral, no nothing but pure, oinking, squealing HOG. Just a thought on different fats for enfluerage. I used to work for EMU ranchers, the people I worked for sold their bird fat (I believe). Emu is very hydrating & scent free. it's worth checking out. heres a # for emu ranchers in MN 8003684246 the less refined fats would work well I'm thinking but I'm not sure how well the fat would travel.

Many studies are flawed too. What happens in a laboratory doesn't happen in the body. By the way, Sally only refers to one study (not studies), footnote 117, which states: 117. Personal communication, Dr. Olympia Pinto, Rio de Janeiro, etc. It doesn't state " how the blood changed " and it is well-known that good healthy foods would create healing and detoxifying reactions in the blood. If pork were so unhealthy then how could Dr. Jan Kwasniewski's Optimal Diet cure people of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, asthma, obesity, etc. for over 30 years in Poland, since he recommends a lot of pork?

Guest guest Report post Posted June 21, 2010 Mercola has several articles on the dangers of eating pork. This is just one of them. He says in one of his articles that even when cooked thoroughly you can get some virus or bug from pork. http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2008/07/12/are-there-deadly-s\ uperbugs-in-your-pork.aspx I know my family would like to be able to have another source of meat but I'm not sure about pork.

Guest guest Report post Posted June 21, 2010 ****A lot of people change their minds and sometimes frequently. I would agree with Susie that we each need to use our own good judgement - which would include your own research and personal beliefs. I do not eat pork or shell fish, for my own personal religious beliefs and I do not believe they are healthy. I find that I can do the diet just fine without them. But, again, there are some things that we just need to make up our own minds about. > > > > Mercola has several articles on the dangers of eating pork. > > This is just one of them.

Guest guest Report post Posted June 21, 2010 I have also heard that some people object to eating pork because its amino acid profile is very similar to human meat. Generally, I would think that if pork were really bad for us, Dr. Krasniewski would not have had such success with his Optimal Diet. I do agree that we each need to use our own good judgment.

Guest guest Report post Posted February 26, 2012 Hi Diane, I can't speak to the health issues many people take with to pork. I can only speak to the pork roast Will noted, because I made it. I started with very high quality pork. And, as he probably described, cooked it in a slow cooker for 8 hours on low, placing it on a bed of chopped onion, and with a bit of water, salt, pepper, and two bay leaves. it was fantastic, and I felt great after consuming it. Like many things, I wonder if moderation is the key. I'll have to read more about consuming pork, but still recommend it. Served with mashed yams and greens - wow.

Guest guest Report post Posted February 27, 2012 Thanks for the ideas, everyone. It was yesterday's meal. Kathy, your recipe was almost what I did. I soaked it in vinegar (white) for about 12 hours Sat. night. Then I followed the recipe Will posted last month, which is what you said, Kathy, with the addition of thyme but no ACV. (A different recipe than what you said, Rebekah. Next time, maybe I'll use a crockpot.) I roasted it in an electric roaster for about 1.5 hours. It was good, except the vinegar flavor was very strong - on the outside, mostly. Luckily, the inside was less strong, and it was pretty tasty. I don't think I marinated it properly, or maybe it needed to be rinsed better or soaked in water for awhile before roasting? Would ACV have a less strong flavor on the meat?I don't want that strong a vinegar flavor in the future. > > I eat pork, but marinate it when I can. I think it's a good idea. You can just pour a little ACV over it and then prepare any recipe. I often then just put salt and pepper, garlic, rosemary and a little olive oil (Italian style) on it and slow roast it in the oven. Great with mashed potatoes and a green vegetable. > > Kathy > Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest guest Report post Posted February 28, 2012 Yeah, I don't want a strong vinegar flavor either. I don't know if white vinegar is any better or worse than ACV in that respect, but do make sure it is organic, otherwise it is likely made from GMO corn. I don't use much vinegar- maybe only a quarter of a cup and perhaps you could reduce your marinating time a bit. I wouldn't recommend rinsing or soaking in water. The other option (too late now, but for next time?) would be to marinate with vinegar and then make a BBQ sauce for the meat which would only be enhanced by the flavor of the vinegar.
