@contentandwell your son-in-law must have been raised Hindu, as was I. Our families don't usually eat beef, as respect for the cow is a part of Hindu belief.
Muslims generally eat beef, as long as it's halal, but adhering Muslims don't eat pork.
When my parents were raising my brother and I, they weren't too strict on not eating beef themselves, so we ate it every once in a while. I've grown to have a complicated relationship with beef, mainly because of the US meat and dairy industry.

@ayeshasharma My D.I.L. parents are from India and they are Muslim but she was born in Long Beach but as a vegan she doesn't eat meat of anykind. Not even the gel that's in the candies either .

He was raised Hindu, more culturally than religiously. His parents and sister eat no meat or fish though.
@lioness I have the same excuse when it comes to dark chocolate. I buy high quality bars and break them into sections and store them in a little covered dish. I just finished one that was in the 90s, that was a little too much. I like 85%.
