why doesnt the USA eat more goat meat?

you like goat?

sure it is strong tasting. but those damn things can eat anything. i've watched a small herd clean out poison oak on my mountain bike trail. i read an article that the world eats more goat meat than anything else on the planet. so this is the rest of the world. this article went on to say, goat meat takes less resources. less land, less food..compared to cattle. and they pollute less.

only time i ever eat goat is if i shoot a feral one on a friend's ranch. great bow targets. i like the meat fine, especially in curries.

just wondering. that horse thread got me thinking.

 

I like goat meat. Had a lot of it in Argentina.

I'm sure it will be the Next Big Thing in NYC and SF restaurants. Get in on the goat game now!

 

Mmmm. Goat is tasty. As well as goat's milk and cheese. I'll take it over beef or pork any day.

 

Goat meat is fantastic. I get it from mexican markets. Goat cheese and goat milk are great too.

 

Goat meat, cheese and milk all taste great. Hopefully it doesn't catch on and I can keep buying at current prices.

 

X2!

 

Never had it but I'd give it a shot.

 

I'm sure it has something to do with Market Value. There isn't as much meat per animal, and someone can't make as much profit off of goats. 'Merica where the rich keep getting richer and the poor are fucked.

 

Not enough marketing dollars spent, ie Beef, it's what's for dinner, Pork the other white meat etc.

 

Goat, eats your trash and everything else. Doesn't have quite the same ring.

 

Goat. Way better than the other shit.

 

are Gyro's made with goat meat? If so, then I love it!!

 

Lamb and Beef normally

 

if its not laced with bacon and deep fried in lard it's not murican enough.

 

'Merica doesn't give a shit about this.

 

Lamb...that's right! I guess I've never had goat meat then. I'll have to try it...

 

If y'all ever see BIRRIA DE CHIVA at a mexican restaurant or market, buy it!

 

Goat tastes like tin cans

 

Bingo. The last thing the beef, pork and poultry industries want is for us to have another viable option. On my land I could support a couple of goats, but realistically it's not large enough for cattle. If I (the royal 'I') were to realize I could viably raise my own meat, then what would I need their hormone-laden monstrosities for?

 

that's another animal/meat I wouldn't eat unless for survival
