i am a vegetarian about 98.5 perfect of the time: a couple times a year i have brisket at my mom's house, or the occasional treat at mcdonalds, a slice of turkey at thanksgiving. and once a year, when the weather gets cold and raw, i make a stew. with meat. with the wind and the rain this seemed like the right time.

now, i make a damned good stew, and i decided to splurge on an extra-expensive ingredient... organic meat.

let me warn you: do not eat organic meat. ever have meat in mexico? kind of like that. now, i know all about antibiotics and bovine growth hormones and all the stuff that they do to meat production in this country. and i'm all about eating food that's good for you. but when the organic meat is hard, never softens, and tastes like dead liver... this is pretty much a sign that organic meat was a very, very bad idea. so i had salad.
