replacing my meats with bison

[king1033]

well my diet usually consists of wild caught salmon 4x daily and either chicken or turkey or beans as my other protein source for the other 3 meals of the day, now on occasion i will have a steak because it just taste so darn good, but have given thought to giving up my steaks and replacing with bison meat since hearing about how it contains the somewhat healthier fats in it. When just focusing on health would you all agree that making this change in my diet would be a more positive change for my health?

beef

i agree bison would contain a better ratio of good fats but so would grass fed beef. you can still have your steaks as long as it's grass fed.

I love bison. If I could get it for the price of beef, thats all I would eat.

I eat a pound of grassfed bison every day. Get from a local rancher.
Great stuff and a little leaner then the grassfed beef. I don't really notice a difference in taste.

question about bison

are the bison grass/range fed or are they raised commercially and grain fed......makes a difference.

Way too much! I get my Bison/lbs for $5.99/lbs, but lately the Wild cought sockey is running me $9.99/lbs. I get a little better price on Salmon if I go to the local Seafood dealer but it is out of the way to get fresh fish every other day.. So I cut back to 8oz of Salmon a day.
about $400/week for the family

well luckily I get a majority of my salmon for free since i live just right down the road from rivers swarming with the stuff. bison i go to my local buddy who raises the cattle right on his farm. so I am very fortunate to say the least. but I do know coming from city living previous to moving out in the mountains that the stuff can get so $$$$$ i am saving 100's of dollars just getting it myself (salmon, deer etc) hopefully this next hunting season I can find me some buffalo!!! lol

ok?.. where do you live man? It'll be tough trying to build your body and be butcher/fisherman/hunter. Hopefully there's a grocery store around there cause they're a little more dependable.

I hear you though, live in Kauai and right down the street from me was at one point the most expensive grocery store in America ($9.99 a gallon of offbrand milk)
