That doesn’t inherently make it unhealthy. We have the means to not have to eat the animals we slaughter immediately due to refrigeration.

The frequency and serving sizes are what make it unhealthy. Coupled with an increasingly sedentary lifestyle and one of the best/easiest decisions you can make to improve your health is to cut back on meat, especially processed meat products. Proccessed meat is definitely, 100% unhealthier than cuts from your local butcher.

Processed meat is a Group 1 carcinogen. We should be treating it like we treat cigarettes.

Dude I can breathe air and get cancer.

That does not mean air causes cancer if that's what you are saying. Processed meat actually does.

While that's true, some things are definitely worse than others.

You can ignore them and smoke if you want. And if you're lucky, you'll still die of something that isn't caused by your smoking.

Yes, but all these points were not mentioned by the user I’m responding to. He stated that our ancestors didn’t eat meat as frequently as we do now. That was his argument against red meat.
