Emu

Very similar to ostrich in taste and texture. Looks and tastes like beef! Lower in fat, calories and cholesterol than skinless boneless chicken. Raised without the use of hormones, antibiotics and or steroids ever! A truly all natural product. Farm-Raised on open pastures in the United States Higher in Iron (great for women). Our farm-raised Emu are free roaming on farms raised for Fossil Farms in the mid-west.  Emu is a cousin of the ostrich family of birds.  With a lot smaller muscle structure these birds are often suggested by many of our customers as even more tender than our award winning ostrich.  A little history on the Emu:  The emu, native to Australia, has been traced back nearly 60 million years to the age of the dinosaur. It is a member of the ratite (flightless birds) family and second only to the ostrich in size. For hundreds of years the emu has been revered by the native people of Australia, the Aborigines. It provided the Aborigines with meat, clothing and natural medicines. It is only in the past 15-20 years that the rest of the world has become aware of the products of this large bird. Healthy red meat that is extremely low in fat, hides that provide quality leather products and an oil that is rendered from the fat of the bird that may become one of the greatest natural discoveries of the 21st century. Today, these magnificent birds are being commercially raised in the United States for their heart-healthy red meat and their extraordinary oil.

Fresh Emu Egg Code: EM-FF-CWF-FS Price: $30.00 Quantity in Basket: none WOW, green eggs and ham! I never knew it can be this good!! Emu eggs have a natural avocado green color to them, making them a very attractive egg. A single emu egg is equivalent to about 10 hen’s eggs, so makes an impressive omelet! And they contain more fat (the yolk accounts for about 45% of the egg, compared to 35% in a hen’s egg).
