The USDA has stated that rabbit is the most nutritious meat known to man. Rabbit is an all-white meat with fine grain and delicate flavor. It works as a great substitute in any recipe calling for chicken or pork. Consider: having less than 800 calories per pound, rabbit has fewer calories and less fat than chicken, turkey, beef, pork, or lamb. It has about half the amount of cholesterol of those other meats, at 164mg per 100g. It has 33% less sodium than chicken. Rabbit, comically known as the “other, other white meat” isn’t only lacking the bad stuff; it’s rich in the good stuff. Rabbit is 21% protein, compared to the 20% protein content in chicken and turkey, 16% in beef and 13% in pork. Since rabbits are raised in all-wire cages rather than on pasture, it is also one of the most sanitary meats available.
