Hello mylot friends. Members of the myLot community are from all over the world, different nationalities, different cultures. And, people have likes and dislikes about the food they eat too, and the way it is prepared. I prefer seafood to meat. I am not a vegetarian, but I like having different types of veggies. Fortunate enough to be travelling to different parts of the world often, I get to enjoy food prepared in many different ways. How about you ? Do you prefer seafood too ? Or. are you a vegetarian ?

honestly, i prefer meat to vegetable. as to seafood, some of them is my favourite.it's said vegetable and seafood is more healthy than meat, not to much fat and something like that.

Seafoods is great but here in our place, seafoods like shrimp and crabs are so expensive that we eat them only on special occasions. But there are places here that can afford to have seafoods on their table everyday because it is cheaper. As for me we prefer meat and fish because it is what we can easily get in here. We like chicken too and beef. We have dishes here that can be 2 in 1, like with meat and veggies too.If you get the chance to visit again, then maybe if your schedule allows it, i can prepare some of these dishes for you to see how you like them.Have a good day, my friend.

Hi Greenline, I love seafood and meat, especially beef. And I enjoy eating dishes from different countries and cultures, so when I travel, I prefer to look for their local specialties. It's more authentic, different from those that are prepared over here; for example, the taste of Thai tomyam in Bangkok is much much better than here, where they might have localised the flavors.

Oh, you have been to Bangkok ! I have been there too. Yes, you are perfectly right. The way they make tomyamkum in Bangkok is very tasty , quite unlike from how they prepare in the restaurants here in my hometown.

Well from among the rest of the foods, I really love seafoods. But this does not mean I do not eat vegetables, pork meat, chicken and others. But my apetite would really go for seafoods most especially crabs, lobster and grilled fish.

No, I am not a vegetarian. And I'd choose seafood over beef or chicken any day. I love seafood. Except calamari. I'm not too crazy about the taste of that. But shrimp, mussels, crab, I could go on and on. If someone ever opened a restaurant wtih a seafood buffet, I'd have to chain myself to a chair not to be there every night.

Hey greenline! I love all different kinds of foods! I wish that I didn't ever eat meat so that I didn't like the taste of it so much. I love veggies too and I love seafood! So I eat a combination of everything! I love to cook and since I can't afford to go out to eat I make a variety of different things!

I love them both. Sea foods are delicious foods when cooked the right way. I love lobsters and shrimps. They are my favorite sea food. I also love vegetables, I'm not really choosy when it comes to foods. I eat almost everything.

I used to eat any kinds of food(meat, fish, veggies, etc) but since i've got diabetes already i'm not allowed to eat red meat(pork, beef and some parts of the chicken).. now, i'm more into healthier options(eating the right kind of food, exercise, etc)

Yes, if you have diabetes, one has to avoid taking certain foodstuff. Have to follow doctor's advice , right ?

I guess I'm a food lover, whether it may be meat, seafood or veggies, as long as it's edible. :) but for now, I really am trying to lessen my meat intake, so as of now, I would love to eat lots of veggies.

I love meat and seafood. I don't see how anyone can live a vegetarian lifestyle? Meat has protein, and certain things that you cannot get from just eating vegetables.

i'm one of those who's a picky eater. i don't like to eat too much meat but neither am i a vegetarian. the only meat that i eat for sure are pork and chicken. no others for me meaning that seafood is out as well. i don't know why but i just don't really like sea food, maybe it's the taste but i'm not really into marine animals as well too. well maybe dolphins are cute but that's about it. i can handle fish fillet like in burgers but that's about it too. so if anyone needs to cook for me, they don't have much of a choice to choose from BP

I like types of meat and seafood. I tend to eat more vegetables though, don't want to get too much fat from the meat. And seafood sometimes get me allergic so I need to be very careful about choosing them to eat.

I am a fo0d-lover! I love to eat and I don't care if it is a meat, seafood (even I'm allergic to it. Hahaha..), veggies or even exotic foods! ^_^ Just know your limitations and know how to control yourself when eating. ^_^
