In The Shameless Carnivore: A Manifesto for Meatlovers, author Scott Gold proclaims his adoration for all things animal. He decides to eat 31 different types of meat in 31 days and forms a close bond with his butcher in the process. He also forms a philosophy:
1. Be Discerning (eat only good stuff)
2. Don’t Be a Glutton (don’t eat too much)
3. Be Conscientious (be aware of where your meat comes from and how it got to your plate).
Along the way he explores vegetarianism, shares recipes such as Herb Crusted Rack of Lamb and the more exotic Tibetan Yak Momos and explores some meaty mysteries such as what do “prime,” “choice” and “select” mean anyway?
