Rwise My great uncle next door was born ~1870, lived to 89. He was an outdoorsman, collected, numbered and journaled every arrowhead and artifact he found along the IL River and hunting grounds, made skirts out of rattlesnake tales, had every hunting license and duck stamp framed, since they were required. My dad got up at 3 am to go sit in duck blinds, for sport not need. I grew up eating quail, mallords, geese, wild and tame rabbit, squirrels, other birds. I watched a lot of it get cleaned. His first deer hunt he shot a huge buck - I only can eat deer jerky. My mom made all of that taste good, esp wild rabbit in the oven. She actually cooked a wild game dinner for the owner of the finest restaurant in the area, he used to be the chef to a Swiss General, drove a Pantera.

Puglover1 You bet I do, I was a hunter when I could walk in the woods and carry a riffle. I prefer my fish to come from "my" fishing hole, that shit in store tastes like lard. I still have my first riffle, a .22 air gun, I could take the eyes out of a bird with it. As a kid my Mom would get up, notice salt, pepper, and foil gone, a sure sign Richard was not going to be home for a few days. We lived on tree rats, frogs, rabbits, and fish. To grownup here now for any real hunting, many of the best pond were filled in, sad.
Some years ago I invited a friend to diner, he ask if I was cooking deer, I said no we'll be having chicken fried steaks, mashed tatters and gravy. On his 4th plate he said damnit Richard you tricked me this is deer! Yep and he luved up to that moment. LOL

alltatup CVS: praised themselves for stopping selling cigarettes. Every ad, every other end cap, is full of candy deals. Diabetes = $$$$ in supplies and meds, lung cancer not so much. I quit going in their stores a few years back.
Rwise Still fortunate to have a town grocery store with good meat. A poultry company in the town north of me, and a meat locker 30 minutes away but they deliver to town 1-2x/week: whole animals processed, quads, halves or pkg mixes. I mostly buy their ground beef, a tad bit of fat, no gristle, and very tasty. Surprised you don't have access there. Do you have those crazy wild hogs, like in Texas?

I totally believe there is a conspiracy to make the American public as sick as possible by getting everyone to eat junk food (or take opioids); this is how doctors, pharma, etc. stay filthy rich. Diabetes, obesity and heart disease are trillion-dollar industries.
Rwise stick with organic.

alltatup Do a little googling of vintage cigarette ads. This may look fake...

Here's one of today's versions of the WMF principle (worship money first):
UN health body says bacon, sausages and ham among most carcinogenic substances along with cigarettes, alcohol, asbestos and arsenic
They COULD make all these meats in safer ways: they just wouldn't last on the grocery shelf for months and months, thanks to all those cancer-causing preservatives.
Jeez, this is turning into On the Heavier Side... sorry about that...
BUY ORGANIC COLD CUTS!!! THEY ARE AVAILABLE!!!
