re: Just 12% of Americans — mostly men — are eating half of our beef supply

Don’t eat the beef but make sure you consume Lucky Charms with a glass of orange juice and toast in the morning and the skim milk. Enough sugar to see you to the mid-morning snack of an apple to see you to lunch where you can eat a salad with fat free dressing. Then you are so hungry at 3pm you eat that bag of chips stored in the desk with the Snickers bar.
Fortunately dinner comes soon with the 4 oz of beef and enough potatoes or pasta to make you full ending the evening with ice cream.
You step on the scale the next morning and wonder why the Dept of Agriculture diet is causing you to gain weight and be boarder line diabetic when you limited your beef intake to 4 oz
