Yes, beef. Fair enough. I admit I don’t know much about the scripture. Apart from beef, is there prohibition of meat in general? Or am I confusing Sikhism? Isn’t that why food products are either marked as vegetarian or non-veg? And Muslims talk of affirming their faith by eating meat?

As far as Hinduism is concerned ,no text disallows Hindus from eating flesh.Even Rama ate flesh.
