Audrey Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 (edited) My son is doing a project for 4-H. It would help a lot if you could vote in this poll. It asks what is the meat you eat most frequently in your household. You can only pick one. There is no "other" option, as that would make his data collection too wide spread. Thank you!

Lawana Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I put chicken, but we're probably really close between chicken, beef and turkey. With pork trailing not too far behind. Dh stores it really well.;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elegantlion Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I voted chicken. Beef would be a close second, but because I do most of the cooking it's chicken. Bacon would be third, not any pork, just bacon. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lewelma Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 You forgot Lamb. We live in New Zealand, and it is cheaper than chicken. Edited: Ah, I see that there was not supposed to be an other. Ruth in NZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edited: Ah, I see that there was not supposed to be an other. Ruth in NZ Sorry about that. Ds is trying to narrow it down to the most popular and he's going to trace that product from farm gate to plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaillardia Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 We have two in our home who only eat fish, some seafood, the rest of us eat chicken/poultry most often, less often beef. None of the rest. I'm sorry. Maybe I messed up. Chicken, chicken, chicken is eaten most often at our home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meggie Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I voted for chicken, even though it really is a toss up between that and ground turkey. Eh well, hope that's ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsBasil Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Chicken, it's the cheapest meat available to me and, if I buy a whole one, I can stretch it for several meals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caitilin Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Ours is "grit-eating, dirt-scratching" free range chicken. Occasionally, we eat buffalo, grass-fed and pastured.:001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacia Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Well, I voted pork, though it's probably about equal w/ chicken. Personally, I don't eat any of it except fish about once a week. (I'm mostly vegetarian.) But, dh & the dc love bacon, sausage, bratwurst, pork tenderloin (dinner tonight, actually), yada, yada. :ack2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairyMom Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Voted. We don't eat meat. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diana B Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 We go with what ever I find the cheapest. Lately it's been a lot of ground beef - so I went with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liz CA Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I voted for dh's preference but for me, it would be fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather in Neverland Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I would love for my answer to be beef but it's not. :glare: It is so expensive here. So my answer is chicken... but I am still pouty about it. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsabelC Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 (edited) Our most frequent is chicken, closely followed by beef, with occasional lamb and fish. We would eat much more fresh fish if we could afford it, but the ones that are lowest in lead etc are the most expensive. We try to avoid anything intensively farmed but I do occasionally succumb to the temptation of farmed Atlantic salmon. We currently avoid pork because we don't have access to free range, but we will be getting a whole pig next year so we'll probably eat that about once a week. Turkey is very rare, it's just not eaten that much in Australia and likewise I haven't found a source of free range turkey either.

Melissa in Australia Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I voted pork, because that is primarily what we have been eating fro the last 2 months ( we grow our own) we have just had 2 cows done, so we will be eating mostly beef from this week on. Our meet doesn't really leave the farm gate. we do take it to the abattoirs to be killed, but mostly chop it up ourselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tammyla Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I voted chicken, but we girls don't eat it. We are an odd mix, one vegetarian / occasional fish eater, one who will only eat pork (bacon & ham) and the guys, who will eat pretty much everything.

Jenny in Atl Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Fish. It's cheap here and it's healthy. I wish that was the case here... :sad: We get free range organic bird the most, then lamb, free range beef/bison, fish, and finally pork.

AuntieM Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Not sure if he also needs comments, but our choice is greatly affected by geographic region (we'd eat differently if we were closer to the coast). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie Smith Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I'll bump for you. I voted "We don't eat meat" since 3 out of 4 of us don't eat meat. My hubby does eat it at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny in Florida Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I voted, and may I just say how happily surprised I was to see a "We don't eat meat" option in the poll? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emzhengjiu Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 We eat mostly chicken followed by beef, but I'm trying to cut down how much meat we eat. If sustainable fish were affordable, we would eat fish primarily. Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuirkyKapers Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 We eat mostly chicken, than beef than turkey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I sit here wishing I could find a source of organic chicken. lol Fish is almost free it's so cheap. We can get organic veggies straight from the growers here, but nobody does organic meat. I don't like the chicken we can get and I don't trust the way it was raised and handled at all. We have it on occasion just for the sake of variety, but I'd love to have more if it were better quality. Crab is crazy cheap, too. I got the biggest crab I've ever seen for 5 dollars. It had just been pulled out of the ocean a few hours before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audrey Posted September 13, 2011 Author Share Posted September 13, 2011 I voted, and may I just say how happily surprised I was to see a "We don't eat meat" option in the poll? I think he wants to use those numbers as a jumping off point for talking about grain and produce markets. Everyone has to eat something. He wants to trace where the food farmers grow is going. It's one of the self-created projects through 4-H and I think it's a pretty neat one he's developing. But, I'm a little biased. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenangelcat Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I voted chicken but it's not entirely accurate. Chicken is all we have in the freezer right now. Before that it was all goat. In the next month we'll have pork, duck, rabbit, turkey and goose. At the moment they are still outside gaining weight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
