Duck is a very FATTY meat I know people eat duck but it's not the healthiest of meats to eat. Many people having to have triple bypass is because of there heavy meat consumption, and there eating habits definetly have to change which for older folks can be very challenging.
I am in the medical field and nutrition is important.

That is absolute nonsense. Wild duck has a fraction of the fat of farm-raised chicken or turkey. It is quite lean and quite nutritious. And besides which, animal fat is not the demon you people think, witness the success of Atkins and lack of evidence to support skyrocketing cholesterol rates among devotees.

"Duck is a very FATTY meat"
No. Duck is a very lean meat - it has virtually no marbling. Store bought duck does tend to have lots of fat, but normal people will disregard the fat and just eat the meat. Wild duck is an entirely different matter - it has little fat to begin with.

The coronary and cancer epidemic of the last ~80 years closely tracks the REPLACEMENT of animal fats in the diet with toxic subsitutes such as soybean oil, cottonseed oil, canola oil, etc.

I am a chemist and I happen to know that the medical field is just plain WRONG about the whole fat question. Here's a good place to start learning the truth: The Oiling of America

"I am in the medical field and nutrition is important.How old are you?
" Jesus ate fish, berries nuts wine yogurt bread and proably some lamb at the Passover(and mutton on a regular basis), he was not promoting every animal consumable."
You do realize that's about all they had for food, beside grasshopper. Suppose he'd have turned down a chuck roast?

The fact is we are at the top of the food chain and have the right, as Americans, to choose what we will and will not eat.
You, and others who think like you, do not have the right to force your chosen lifestyle on other people.
If you think humans are so terrible to animals, why don't you leave your city penthouse and spend a few days in the woods and see how animals terrorize each other in the wild- its worse than anything people do.
The reality is that wildlife is not Bambi. Leave alone what you do not understand.

I am in the medical field and nutrition is important. Your home page says you're a recuiter. Which is it? Recruiting nurses for temp work is not "being in the medical field".
