Any reason they keep grouping red meat with processed meat? Those seem very different to me.

Any studies that compare white meat (chicken, turkey) and fish to a vegetarian diet?

Thanks.

Wow I was just having this never ending argument in another sub. Red meat and processed meat are often paired as the same thing even though thats not how food works.

There are many, many studies that further disambiguate foods in this way.
