Go eat a medium rare steak, it will the most satisfying experience of your 20 years of life. You can do all that other stuff you were talking about too, but eat a steak first.

Medium rare? Took me years to get used to eating that... Start out with something Well done, or atleast medium well.

Burger meat is actually quite awful by itself, I'm not sure if that flavor will overpower is you're not used to meat...

I'd say start out with a chicken sallad or something like that.

Bird or fish, then pork, then beef, and finally lamb would be my recomendation order.

Maybe because my mum never made me lamb, ever, but once when I had it, the taste was so overpowering it was hardly edible... just tasted like wool smells...

I don't know what you mean by "healthiest", but fish is a good place to start, then poultry, then the red meat, then the holyness that is sushi, but don't eat it more than twice a week. Also you NEED to try beef jerky, our caveman ancestors created it and it is one of the tastiest accidents next to peanut butter + chocolate.

After eating good meat you will never stop... ever.

Also, for the do not eat part, do NOT eat chain fast food meat unless it is chicken. Recently they found out the grade in the ground beef at taco bell was lower quality than dog food ( although there is some really nice dog food out there lol..) and some woman kept a mcdonalds cheeseburger for like 20 years or something with no mold or deterioration...

Also meat is ok raw too, just not rotten, and all freshwater fish/shrimp are edible raw.

As someone who grew up on a farm, I was taught this as a 4 year old... When all other parts have been butchered, you take the remainders and grind them up and make minced meat or sausages out of it.

lol at all those steak guys :D

"hey i'm a 20 year vegetarian, what meat to get first" - "steak obviously! its the best there is!"

its like .. "hey, so my bike broke last week and i decided to get something engine-powered, what to buy?" - "well try a fully armored tank for starters, its the most fun evarrrr!"


suuuuuuure x)

-> absolutely agree on take something easy first, chicken or fish sounds fine, maybe try to just put some small pieces into a salad or something, to smooth in. Maybe you can avoid most of the throwing up stuff that way.

Red meat is super tasty, I think lamb is the most delicious; beef is kind of bland actually, unless you go with cuts with lots of fat (like rib eye) or organic.

Fish can be tasty if you like seafood; white meat from a chicken is ultra boring, always go with dark!

Go to a Greek restaurant and order a mixed grill. That way you get to taste all kinds of different meat, and you will be able to make up your own mind on what you like.

I recommend you to stay the hell away from pork. Out of all the "standard" meat, pork is one of the most unsanitary and unhealthy food you'll ever come across.

Other than that, I'd start with grilled chicken breasts and work your way up from there.

This is an urban myth. There is no such thing as a meat grade.

There is a order to wich parts you butcher first. You start with the filé, since that's valued the most etc...

And as I edited in my earlier reply, when everything is butchered, you take the leftovers and grind them up into minced meat or sausages.

As has been said multiple times, start with a small amount of a "lighter" meat. Having never digested any meat in your life, it will be incredibly difficult for you to digest meat efficiently at first.

Go to a Brazilian BBQ place and keep that little mofo on green until you enter a meat coma. I call it the meat-baptism. After that come back here and we'll welcome you into the family.

Hahaha those places are so awesome, he'd probably die though.

I recommend just a little wine or beer with your first meat man. makes it go down easier, and your tummy can deal with it better.

any chance you could take a video of your first bite? *o*

Maybe just have some light stuff before you hit the steaks. Maybe sushi/sashimi if you think you'd like fish. Or just have a dish with meat in it instead of "oh I'll go eat a 12 oz steak immediately." Like a pasta or something.

Tell us how it goes! I've been lacto-ovo vegetarian for about 2 years now so I wanna see if you get sick or anything if you scarf down a steak.

Steak is the tastiest though, but work your way up to it. You can skip out on burgers, they aren't that tasty.

Ummmm, eating meat probably won't let you get protein in a more efficient manner. Yes, there is quite a bit of protein in meats, particularly like chicken, but it's nothing compared to those protein powders.

That said, you should definitely start off slow like everyone else is saying. However, once your digestive system gets accustomed to it, move on to the big leagues. Try some very nice cuts of steak (New York Strip is nice, Filet Mignon is great). Also, never order one of those nice cuts at anything above a medium. I prefer medium-rare, and I have a friend who gets everything rare (I've tried it once, and it's not bad). For nice cuts of meat, though, it's basically a waste to get it medium-well or well-done. With ground beef and burger meat, you can definitely get it medium-well, and in fact you should, because that's where you're more likely to get foodborne illness if it's not cooked well enough. However, it's much less likely with high quality cuts of steak.

When you get the chance move up to lamb. It is definitely an under consumed meat in America and is very good when cooked correctly. But yeah follow other TLers advice about taking meat intake slowly. Dont eat a medium rare steak. Lol.
