Have been eating chicken frequently. For the health concious, There cannot be a better source of protein!! All this thing about infection is overstated as cooking destroyes the virus (assuming that there is an infection). howver, govt claims that infected poultry has been culled so no cause to worry.
Chicken is the cheapest Meat you could get and least tastest meat Around. You may ask any meat eaters in the world and they will tell you. Even Chicken is considered as Vegetarian when you compare with other meat like Mutton ,Beef , Pork , Fish etc. But Chicken is suppose be eaten well cooked unlike other Meats like fish and beef where its eaten half cook or even raw which says its worthiness. I think chicken could be avoided since better Non Vegetarian meats are available.
I am also lucky enough to be born as pure vegetarion so there is no need to panic for me any time...about any diesase which i never dream also to eat..
It is good to read that you should not give up CHALTA HAI attitude,also one should not care about the hygine conditions & promote the roadside food. I guess u r yourself confused about something in life.You can't give up chicken,fine & good but u can't force the same thing on others.
I dont think this discussion was ever about being a vegetarian or a non vegetarian . It was purely about whether the bird flu is honestly all that big a deal and the writer's view on the mountain of a mole hill that people have made out of situation "bird flu" . To each his own is fair anough but honestly , chicken or no chicken for the sake of this bird flu is the question , not Vegetarianism !
I dont think if you're crazy for chicken you should continue eating it. I am a vegetarian and I absolutely hate chicken. I cannot see it! I mean there is no point breaking your heart up for chicken and if u consider eating chicken is good that doesnt implies its good. I mean every one has different views. But because of bird flu, you must definately ignore it for your own good!
