karen_dms Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 This question occurred to me and I don't know the answer...say you're invited to a typical fancy banquet hall wedding or other catered event with a sit down dinner. You're asked, "Beef, chicken or fish?" Chances are, the chicken is not pastured, the beef is not grass-fed, and the salmon is farmed. Which would be the best choice? I'm curious.

missmary Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 I've found at catered events, the protein is usually marinated or sauced; fish and beef often have a soy-based sauce, chicken often dairy/cream-based. If I am not doing a whole30, I would ask how each is prepared and choose the one with the least problematic sauce, accepting that all three would be factory-farmed/less than ideal. Occasionally they can give you the protein without, but often it's been sauced in a pan already, so it is really helpful to contact the caterer in advance if you have a special dietary need (like a current whole30) that can not be compromised. If you are at an unusual occasion where the proteins are all available without additives, I would choose beef first, then salmon, then chicken.
