I did. We had some when we went to Australia. At least, that's what we
were told it was. I've had Bison too, it reminded me of the horseburgers.

Bison is fairly common around here. It's very lean which isn't always a
good thing. I've had emu burgers iirc. The was a company promoting emus
as a growth industry at the Arizona state fair one year and they were
handing out samples. I don't think emu farming ever took off. At the
time the price for a breeding pair was ridiculous and even chicks were
pricey.

Then there are Rocky Mountain oysters. I had those at the Rock Creek
Testicle Festival decades ago. Deep fried, rather tough, mystery meat as
far as I was concerned.



I have had bison and it was too lean otherwise but beef like in taste.
I had ostrich and it was also beef like but not as good. Had shark,
don't know what kind but it was tasty. Groundhog, maybe like chicken but
tougher. All game animals are leaner than farm raised. Wild ducks and
geese are nothing like the fatty farm raised ones although a caribou
steak I had was quite juicy. I have seen a lot of fat on white tail
deer but as any hunter knows their fat is yucky and high melting point
has it clinging to the roof of your mouth.

Touring France the tour guide said it was rumored that McDonalds had
horse burgers but who knows.
