I’ve been lying to my boyfriend and his family our whole relationship and I don’t know how to get out of it

OK, so for some context. I don’t mean a lie that would ruin our relationship or make me seem like an absolute monster, but I told my boyfriend and his family that I don’t eat beef because I like cows too much. For the last couple of years of my life, I have shown an interest in cow print and cows in general, and it’s just what most people notice and know about me is that I’m the girl obsessed with cows. But regardless of that, I’ll still eat beef. So here’s where lying to my boyfriend comes in. When we first started dating, I struggled with eating due to some stomach issues I was having, and one night I’m at my boyfriend’s house, and his mom made dinner, and he told me to come eat. He told me it was roast beef, and if I’m being 100% honest, I just was not feeling roast beef that night and could not be bothered to eat anything. Also, knowing if I had to eat in front of them, I wouldn’t have been able to finish my food and was scared I would come off as rude, so I just told him I don’t eat beef or cows. And I’m so deep into this to the point where they cook more chicken and pork and always have chicken or pork options for me when they do have beef. My god, does some of the steaks and burgers she makes look good to me, but I just do not know what to do to get out of this.
