JA2340 16 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 How is that roo JA?? Apparently, not as good for you as previously thought. Seems there's some stuff called L-carnitine which is the thing that's the main cause of the build of plaque in arteries. According to the Brisbane Times - Google "kangaroo meat" and the BT article is about the 4th or 5th link. ABC also has the same story! Link to post Share on other sites
Chriselle 158 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 You get deer meat from a local hunter, Chriselle? Where is this? Ya, a friend of a friend gets contracts to cull them so they don't mess around eating all the bark off the trees down here in and around the golf courses. I usually get a few good sized cuts of loin and rump. Last time I got about 7 or 8 lbs. It's been a while so I told my wife to inquire if there is any shooting action planned anytime soon..

That is a by product made by the body when all red meat is broken down, they now reckon that it's linked to arterial plaque build up Link to post Share on other sites

JA2340 16 Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Cooked properly, eggplant is fine - avocado, OTOH has no flavour, no texture - might as well just eat pond algae. Link to post Share on other sites
Alexander L 80 Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Aubergine is a lovely legume. Grilled or fried it is delish. Also have it in a mousaka. Great stuff. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

NoFakie 45 Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 It's not a legume though if we're going to use difficult words. It's a nightshade. Just like the evil potato. Cue horror music! Avocado is lovely, so c'mon people, show your love! Link to post Share on other sites

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Legume. I like that word, and I don't think it's just because I like legs. aubergine is nice....although the texture can be a bit slimy at times, but i generally like it avocado is great, mash some up with salt, pepper and lemon juice for a really tasty, easy to make dip. Local izakaya sells avocado tempura.....melt in the mouth goodness Link to post Share on other sites
