Answer 13

I don't think you should cut the fat from meat.  It is the fat which gives the meat its flavour.  If you are going to remove it cut it off after you have cooked it not before.

Answer 14

No reason.  When it's marinated and cooked, it tastes extra yummy

Answer 15

because eating it would taste pretty gross.

Answer 16

Cuts down on calories

Answer 17

Well, this depends on personal taste.  Personally, i do because it is healthier and saves some extra weight.  However, others believe this takes away from the taste.  I think a lot of people do this simply because we are told we should!  But its up to you...

Answer 18

You don't have to. Is a choice.  Fat will add more flavor while cooking but it can lead to a higher potential of your arteries getting clogged. So, flavor or risk?  That is the quesiton!
