November 23rd – November 29th celebrates the exclusivity of game dining and shooting. It is a pastime enjoyed by many, especially those who enjoy trips to the country to escape the demands of life.
What are the benefits of dining on game meat?
Classed as one of the healthiest meats to eat, there are many benefits why more people should eat it.
- Leaner Than Most Meats
This means it is low in fat and cholesterol. It is also rich in Omega-3, therefore it contains healthy fats. It’s also high in protein and low in calories and a good source for those seeking to lose weight.
- Good for Countryside and Wildlife
Though some may feel game shooting is an unfair pastime, it helps control the population of birds within the UK, as they would grow uncontrollable without.
- Easy to Cook
Because the meat is lean, it doesn’t need overcooked. Therefore, if you’re planning a quick meal, it can replace other meats for example, pheasant can replace chicken.
- It’s Delicious!
It’s also very organic as the birds can roam freely in natural landscapes, usually estates, where the state owners ensure the best conservation efforts are carried out. Those seeking a more organic diet should try it.
