KANGAROO MEAT

I had a chance to chew on a very delectable Kangaroo meat from Australia. Thanks to Pareng Ron, it was real yummy.

I haven't had the chance to take a picture of it, because my dear good friend Jojit hasn't returned my digicam yet. But it was more of beefy-like meat, tastes good when marinated and roasted.

According to studies, Kangaroo meat is ideal for maintaining a balanced diet. Kangaroo meat is low in cholesterol and fat and high in protein and minerals.

Below is the nutritional benefits of Kangaroo as compared to other meat:
