A few times Scott has referenced the phrase “in the Spirit” to refer to John saying Mass. Could you please point me to somewhere I could study that further?
Meat in the US processed in USDA inspected butchers will not have "blood" in them. What most people see is a red, blood-like liquid dripping from the meat. This is not blood but a protein called myoglobin. This is true for most of the meat commonly eaten that is derived from the main muscle groups (steak, roast, or ground meat derived from these groups).
There may be blood in some of the organ meats or in meat processed by unregulated butchers.
I doubt they would have, it's part of the reason that I kept to modern practices under US regulation. Things get wonky when you go back in time or into other countries as regulations and enforcement can vary WILDLY.
For the discussion, bringing up the Jewish Kosher laws and their aversion to pagan meat it was a fitting point. I just wanted to clarify that what we in the US see dripping from a rare steak is not, in fact, blood.
Growing up raising cattle, I have a strong impulse to make clarifications when people make statements that aren't accurate about agriculture. I encounter large numbers of people raised with very little to a completely inaccurate understanding of where their beef comes from, how it was raised, and how it is processed. There are too many sinfully bad documentaries, social media posts, and a prevailing willful ignorance (just plain don't want to learn and won't listen to those who have accurate knowledge) in our modern world where the overwhelming number of consumers have never been exposed to agriculture.
At the Pope’s inaugural Mass, his homily had the following: For this reason, when Jesus addresses Peter, the Gospel uses the Greek verb agapáo, which refers to the love that God has for us, to the offering of himself without reserve and without calculation. Whereas the verb used in Peter’s response describes the love of friendship that we have for one another.

Clarification on rare meat:

Methinks the ancient Hebrews would not have drawn such a distinction though?

Maybe he is listening.
