BISON
TASTE
Bison tastes great! Most people interviewed feel Bison is the most
flavorful meat they have ever tasted, with a sweeter and richer flavor
than beef. Bison is naturally flavorful and tender and can be prepared
much the same as beef.
VALUE
Bison falls into the gourmet or specialty meat category at your
supermarket or meat market. The value of Bison is not what you pay, but
what you get in return. Nutritionally you are getting more protein and
nutrients with fewer calories and less fat. Bison is a dense meat that
tends to satisfy you more while eating less.
HEALTH
Bison are handled as little as possible. They spend their lives on grass,
much as they always have, with very little time in the feedlot. They are
not subjected to questionable drugs, chemicals or hormones. The members of
the NBA feel so strongly about this that they have a resolution opposing
the use of these substances in the production of Bison for meat.
NUTRITION
Research by Dr. M. Marchello at North Dakota State University has shown
that the meat from Bison is a highly nutrient dense food because of the
proportion of protein, fat, mineral, and fatty acids to its caloric value.
Comparisons to other meat sources have also shown that Bison has a greater
concentration of iron as well as some of the essential fatty acids
necessary for human well being.
