Bastardise. Usually, a good rule of thumb for going over or under a word limit is 10%, or 800 words, but they'll really notice 500 and you have to declare the word count anyway.
Well, I don't know about you, but I don't buy crappy quality meat, and either way, crappy quality meat like that which is sold in the US is actually pretty hard to find here. As has been put recently, your average good quality steak has less fat than an equivalent piece of salmon.
No, they would not have accounted for it, because the studies would only be applied in an American context (as it can only be applied to the studied population), and the type of meat available. I.e. the conclusions of the studies would have been "meat is bad for you" or whatever if you live in...
- Not especially, when that is what meat is available and that is what they are testing
- Because for large scale population studies, which these necessarily need to be, require a large scale population to pool from and the resources to do it - I.e. the US
- Meat quality, i.e. "saturated" fat...
Well that largely depends on the quality of the meat you eat if you do have a meat-based diet. Many of these studies have been done in the US, where meat is generally hugely less lean than what you get here.
Well it's a recreation of wootz steel, which I find is awesome. They're not really better, though I hear they keep their edge for far longer than straight steel.
