Kangatarian Diet Review:

Background

You can be forgiven if you mistakenly believe that a "Kangatarian" sounds like a race straight out of Star Trek. Yet, this might just make your average Kangatarian hopping mad. A Kangatarian is a “vegetarian” who eats kangaroo, or to be more accurate a meat eater who only eats kangaroo (yet still wants to be associated with vegetarians).

Due to the fact that its is very difficult to find kangaroo meat outside of Australia, it is unlikely that the world will be overrun by Kangatarians anytime soon. Supporters of going Kangatarian promote the idea due to the fact that kangaroos are only fed wildly grown vegetation. They also emit less methane that nature’s great methane generator, the cow. Whether or not the idea will catch on globally is hard to say, but without a current infrastructure for exporting kangaroo meat worldwide, it is pretty unlikely that Kangatarians will be hopping across the globe in the near future.

What to Eat

Kangaroos.

The Good

The argument that switching from cow to kangaroo is healthier and more humane has merit. Whereas a cow is often kept in horrific conditions at least the average kangaroo is spending its life outdoors. Until kangaroos are farmed like cattle, this is a point in favor of switching from cow to kangaroo.

The Bad

There are numerous practicalities that must be overcome before the idea will likely catch on. The idea has merit...unless of course you are a kangaroo.

Exercise

Kangatarians are mainly focused on exercising their jaw muscles.

Cost

The overall cost of kangaroo meat in Australia is more than beef currently, but that price could drop if this idea catches on.
