Kangaroo burgers

I realized last week that I have been eating too much chicken and too little beef, thus getting me to a point where I was very low on energy due to low iron. Having learnt from my mistake, I decide to integrate more red meat in my diet.

After some research, I found out that kangaroo meat is very high in iron (much higher than beef). In addition, kangaroo meat is only 2% fat, which makes it as lean as chicken. The taste of kangaroo is very close to beef, so most of the time you won't notice the difference whether you use it in burgers, stir fries or sausages. It cooks better than bison meat, which is also very lean but I did not like the taste of bison that much.

Further research on kangaroo meat listed many other benefits of eating kangaroo meat over beef. Other than that it is lower fat, and higher in iron, kangaroo meat also costs less per pound to produce, does not produce harmful methane gases (like cows and sheep) and raising of kangaroos does not cause erosion or damage pastures.

Now, that is ANOTHER reason to move to Australia. Just when I think that this place is the greatest, I find another reason to like it even more. :-)
