The "Centre de l'Émeu de Charlevoix" prioritizes freezing and canned to preserve the quality of emu meat products and avoids the use of preservatives.
Emu meat is tender, has a bright red colour and a sweet flavour. Besides, emu is not fed with hormones, antibiotics or bone meal.
Emu meat is extra-light (2 to 4.7% fat) and low in cholesterol. Furthermore, non-saturated fats in this meat are good for one's health.
This emu meat is an excellent source of protein, iron, zinc, B12 vitamin and has a high level of potassium.
|
| Emu meat reaches those who are looking for healty and diversified food. It also reaches people with ecological concerns or those who need a live-food diet (low in fat, high in iron, gluten allergy). For example, "Austravoix" emu sausages are particularly good for people who are allergic to gluten. |
