Eeeeek.. Weight Gain

[8 Drunken Stylz]

People actually eat Kangaroo?! :confused: :eek: Well, you learn something new everyday.

Oh yeah , the lamb & beef industries here have held a monopoly on the public mindset regarding the consumption of native wildlife, traditionally it?s just been harvested as dog meat. But that?s beginning to change as people become more health (and budget) conscious.

And it?s good too. It?s a beautiful, solid, tender meat. Very dark, well marbled. And because it?s all hunted, not farmed it?s totally organic. None of those nasty growth hormones and antibiotics that you get in lamb and beef. You?ve just got to shoot the roo before it gets to about 3 years, after that it?s only good for curry. Thinking about it makes me begin to doubt my decision to become a vegetarian.

I used to work for a taxidermist who spent a lot of time in Africa. He?d eaten practically every exotic animal under the sun and according to him the only meat that?s any better than kangaroo is warthog, (with hippo coming distant third).

Mmmm, Skippy.
