    Nah, it’s mostly fine, even though I don’t eat any. I’m super bothered by anything that’s fish or seafood though, cooking anything like that kills my appetite for as long as there’s still any detectable smell in the kitchen

    Me, personally? No. I’m also good with handling and preparing raw meat. I use gloves, or I wash my hands, but I can butcher some meat and cut it how I want it, it does not bother me in the least.

    Cooking the meat? Not at all.

    A bit of citrus juice (lemon, orange, grapefruit) which ever you prefer for any meat, also makes it a bit more tender, i like put about a half of lemon or orange juice when making Bolognese because minced beef tends to have a bit of a bad smell when you start cooking it, not even onions help there.

    I stopped eating red meat a few years ago, and hate seafood, so all that’s left is chicken. I like chicken, I eat it almost every day now. But, it’s getting to be that time of year, when I go for my walk around the neighborhood in the evening, that I get the occasional whiff of grilling beef. I miss it, but I’m better off without it.

    I could kill and dress a chicken or a rabbit, if I had to. I’ve never done it, but I could do it.

    No. Cooking any food makes me more hungry. Even in the decades I was vegetarian it didn’t bother me, honestly.

      Same, as another former vegetarian. The only meat that bothered me was hot dogs because the smell always made me crave one even after years of vegetarianism.
