Fuzzy blue-green meat is bad for you.

How do you KNOW? I mean, like, it works for Roquefort...

Red meat is so bad for you... just not as bad as food poisoning! ;)

It hasn't ever proven bad for me. But then, I don't sit down to a 22oz steak for supper.

I don't think it's so much that any particular food is bad for you (chemically processed crap like HFCS excepted; though I consider those chemical food additives, not food), as that any food in excess is bad for you. You want to stay healthy? Eat a range of different stuff, in moderation, as unprocessed as you can, and don't stuff yourself to bursting.

yeah, it's a nice theory...

but given that I haven't had red meat, soda, or coffee since before the 1st of the year and I can *feel* the health benefits on a daily basis, I think there just might be something to this whole "pH balance - Standard American Diet (SAD) is not good for you, evolution never intended us to have it that often" thing.

I "cheated" a little bit on my pH balance diet - eating food I knew I shouldn't, on the acidic rather than alkaline scale. The next day I felt like I'd aged 10 yrs over night and had a horrid "body" hangover.

Trust me, I'm back on track :\
