Oct 7, 2020 at 16:09 comment added Kaz In statements that use any active form of たべる to indicate that a direct object is eaten. たべる is not like ある, きこえる or すき. The grammatical subject is the eater: what is eaten is the direct object.
Oct 7, 2020 at 15:58 comment added mkennedy @Kaz I'm sorry. You've hit my limits. You're saying to use the particle 'o' /「を」rather then 'ga' / 「が」but in which statements?

updated doctor said statement based on Will's comment. spacing, fixed a typo in the transcription.
Oct 7, 2020 at 15:53 comment added mkennedy @Will yeah, I thought so. Thank you very much for the correction.
Oct 7, 2020 at 15:10 comment added Kaz 「が」ではなくて、肉「を」食べます。
Oct 7, 2020 at 0:25 comment added Will That last sentence is rather clumsy Japanese. This is how I would phrase it: お医者さんに肉類を食べてはいけないと言われました。

updated based on lambshaanxy's comment.
Oct 6, 2020 at 5:50 comment added lambshaanxy I would go with 肉が入ってます/-ません (haittemasu/-masen) instead. Also, beware that the term 肉 tends to interpreted rather narrowly as chunks of meat, meaning that meat-based stocks, maybe even ham/bacon/sausage would not register as "meat".
