...which would you pick? For the sake of argument (maybe it will or won't affect your choice) this includes the internal organs, tongue, sausage made from the animal, etc.

Batter and fry it up. Fillet it. Turn it into jerky. Marinade. Braise. Sear. Sous vide. Even raw. Whichever methods of cooking you prefer are options.

I wanted to vote for duck but since you lumped it with chicken and turkey---the rice cakes of meat---I could not.
 
I should be choosing cow because I am all about steak, burgers, ect. But, I worry about a lifetime of eating only red meat giving me some problems like gout and shit.

So, chicken it is. I like the breasts, wings, legs, I like it all. Chicken wings are one of my greatest weaknesses. If they didn't exist, I'd look like Chris Hemsworth.

I would say poultry because instead of others animals, I can at least stomach killing chicken in order to eat them.

I also got a bit sick of meat lately and I dislike the taste of sheep. Sardines don't satiate me enough.

Beef or pork ..they have the tastiest fat (think a fat cap on a steak) . Ground beef is so verseitile , sooo many things I can cook with it .
 
That's tough choice between poultry (duck mhmmmm..), pig and cow. I voted for pig in the end though it was basically a tie between cow and pig.
In times of corona bat is missing among the choices breh

Cow.

But I would miss fish so much.
 
Chicken (and the other birds are an OK bonus) because it is quite versatile. Second choice would be beef, but I could manage eating chicken every day more easily than cow.
 
i really wanted to pick pig but i know i'll probably have a shorter life span so i decided to go with white fish.
 
beef. i dont eat much meat more yogurt really but a small burger for dinner on most days of the week has its place in my diet. poultry could be useful for ppl that dont eat dairy tho since they can switch back and forth between white and dark meat. i wouldve picked oily fish if i didnt get my omega 3s from seeds

Definitely would go for oily fish, I feel it would keep me lean and give me all my required proteins and such without too much fat everywhere. Gotta keep the body healthy.
 
Chicken is the healthiest, the cheapest, and the most versatile. I'm not that big of a steak/hamburger guy to be honest. I would miss chorizo, but if it comes down to one, it'll be chicken
 
So GAF, I recently took up raising rabbits. I didn't know it before this year, but apparently rabbit is one of the best meats you can eat. I guess I'm going to find out in a few months, and hopefully it's as good I'm told!
