It definitely would be healthy. The only problem is that they tend to be more expensive.
Even organic foods tend to be more expensive.

I don't think all meat causes cancer just the processed ones are the ones you gotta look out for.

Stay with chicken and fish, like me. And you are healthy.

Processed meat comes under level 1 carcinogens.
Red meat comes under level 2A.
So it is not just processed meat.

The risk is minuscule. If you are vegetarian, then your risk of getting colo-rectal cancer once in your lifetime is somewhere around 56 per 1,000. And if you take an average 70 grams of processed meat a day (honestly, who takes that much every day?), then your chances jump to 66 per 1,000. So the increase in risk is just 10 per 1,000 people. I am not going to throw away my bacon and sausages.
