Exactly the topic subject! The more beef I am eating the worse it is getting -v
I basically hate the taste of raw beef now. The raw liver is fairly tasteless, but I am tending to make myself raw liver curry and that's pretty nice. The kangaroo is better tasting than the beef but is still getting pretty sickly, and lamb no better. I couldn't afford to have salmon or fish every night, and I can't live off organs because I would probably OD on something like Vit A, plus they are 'oversatisfying' by which I mean I eat a little then I am 'satisfied' even though I am still quite hungry.
What do I do?!

If your instincts tell you to eat something else, do not force yourself on raw beef or lamb.
Instincto thing kicks us back to reality.
There is a time for everything.
I myself had a fling with: oysters everyday, tuna everyday, blue marlin everyday, beef everyday, horse everyday... durian everyday... it's a cycle that of course we all must realize.
-
Well, I guess I want some inspiration - what to eat?
-
You're expecting someone else to tell you what to eat???
I guess people here could tell you what NOT to eat: cooked food and dairy. So feel free to pick whatever you like from the rest :)

What do I eat besides beef?
Lots of various sea food... go to the wet market, pick and taste an enormous variety. (squid, clams, oysters, shrimp, crab, various fish big, medium, tiny... etc.)
Various other red meats like goat, lamb, horse, duck, chicken.
Lots of various fruits... sweet and non sweet... every month there is something in season in my country.
Lots of raw root crops.
Lots of raw vegetables.
I didn't have beef for almost a week.
So this dinner I felt like eating beef... with salty tiny whole fish with innards that is fermented... with fermented ginger... it was satisfying.

I have a similar but slightly different issue in that all the meat I'm eating tastes really bland and tasteless to me. I've had chicken, beef, bison, lamb organs, and salmon and it's all starting to taste the same. But in my case, I think a dash of salt will solve the trick. Do most people eat everything plain, or do they occasionally add salt and spices?
-
I usually eat plain.
If the meat does not taste good to me I don't eat it.
-
Add spices occasionally but be careful not to overdo it. They will get old after a bit also. Let your taste buds be your guide. Try all of the different meats and cuts of meat. Some cuts of meat are not tasty.
I disagree with the assessment to avoid dairy. If someone like dairy go for it.
Everyone has their own taste buds and nutritional requirements.
-
I agree with listening to your body. If it doesn't feel right, don't eat it. You probably don't need it. I disagree with eating root tubers raw. Same with raw veggies unless you can stomach them. Experiment with different things and see what instinctively sounds good to you? How about some word association?
-FRUIT
-SOFT cooked veggies (peas, carrots, potatoes) with raw olive oil or butter
-RAW NUTS
-RAW EGGS
I mean just don't force anything. My diet shifts all the time. Another thing you might try is a "rotation diet." I often get hooked on certain foods. (carrot/celery juice, raw eggs, etc) and then get sick of them mentally and physically. Rotate what you eat on a 3-4 day cycle. Or eat something for a few days then go off for a few days.
-
Some raw veges aren't bad. You can mix them also or juice them. Just make sure not to mix them with other foods.
-
Raw vegan diet is delicious. Even cooked vegan tastes great. U can try them. For short time they work for me. For long term, vegan diet is a killer.

Not sure if I would go along with it being a killer. Not overly healthy with a very slow deterioration maybe.
If someone has crazy notions, I believe any diet can be suicide.
-
I only survived raw vegan for 2 months. raw fruitarian in 2 months. I felt I may have wasted away in the next month... that's why I could only last that long. Some people can go raw vegan longer.
Going on temporary raw vegan or diluted juice fasting is a good thing for me.
-
I was a (cooked) vegan for 23 years and only changed as an experiment. I had no serious issues that I was aware of.
I cannot imagine being a raw vegan or fruitarian.
-
In addition to what other has suggested try getting your meats from different farms/areas of your country as their mineral content might be different. It might give you a new taste.

What do I do?!
Large pizza and a 6 pack. Cheap, filling/bloating

Bleargh, I just threw up my breakfast... I got the eggs down fine (they were cage eggs and didn't taste that nice, but were ok), and then tried to get down some grass fed cow heart and puked... I am not getting the hang of this raw meat thing :( I am surprised you havent had more people like me?
-
Organs are hard to get down IMO

This breakfast, I had a slice of organic dragon fruit, then a slice of wild avocado. Then I felt like eating a raw organic salad for a change and this salad had different leaves, carrots, and zucchini. At the end of it I had tea from malunggay / moringa as my supplement.
I did not eat animal food this breakfast. Why? Because I did not feel like it.
If I didn't feel like eating animal meat and I ate animal meat, then I would have thrown up myself. I ate bad chicken liver one time and I threw up. I ate bad oysters one time and I threw up and had diarrhea at the same time. Throwing up is the body's self defence against bad food.
The technique to raw animal food is to eat it only when truly hungry for it. Eat organic and wild... and choose healthy meat. My own kid at 9 years old knew that when ravenously hungry, raw meat tastes good! There are days I don't feel like eating raw animal meat and that is absolutely fine. There are days I do not like eating anything period... and that is fine... some people here do intermittent fasting.
And if your animal food sucks, or when your veggies or your fruits suck, you have to find better sources. I am sure you don't just pick ANY fruit... you just don't go and eat ANY vegetable... you CHOOSE the better ones.
These days I've come to appreciate the "father" of organic farming in the Philippines because he grows the best tasting veggies and fruits... better tasting than the other organic growers.
I've also come to appreciate beef from a specific wet market. Lamb from new zealand in a membership shopping place. I've come to appreciate beef bone marrow from a specific wet market.
I've also come to appreciate fresh raw sea food from various wet markets and various sellers.
You have to broaden your choices... taste and taste and taste. If I had gotten stuck with factory caged eggs and factory beef... I'd have been miserable.
(last night I had 2 raw squids and some raw tuna sashimi)

well! I have tried marinading and it is coming along great! Garlic and italian herbs and tomato and a Few other things thrown on kangaroo, and then fridge-dried for a day is really nice. A side of yogurt and some herbal tea!
Eating fillets is much more satisfying than mince, and also I am eating things cold!! You all say to eat it room temperature, but I think cold just tastes better!
Also: I think I just don't like beef (muscle or organs or anything!)
-
Another update:
The kangaroo gave me an upset stomach, and I think it was mostly to do with it's super low fat. I had some salted butter and half an hour later the pains went away.
Tasting different sources and cuts really is good advice! I am enjoying this brand of lamb loin chops! I would dip it in olive oil and salt, and serve with a side of sour cream. I definitely rather things slightly cold (15 degrees or so).
-
Wow kangaroo!
What does it taste like? Is it wild? Can you buy it?
-
Kangaroo is interesting because it is so familiar when raw. When I first had it, I explained to people it tastes like how I imagine beef SHOULD taste.
More accurately, kangaroo raw tastes like a quality beef steak cooked rare. This is funny because I like rare beef, but hate raw beef, and cooked kangaroo tastes nothing like cooked or raw beef (it's very tangy).

Oh yikes! No, not beef? I have a suggestion! Don't eat beef! Eat those other foods that you enjoy. A little FREE advise, KIS (keep it simple)!

Can't farm Kangaroos...no fat, smells bad...tastes good.
The meat is a dark red.
