Nutrition

Rabbit is often called the healthiest red meat available. Per 3.5 oz (100g) cooked serving, it runs roughly:

~173
calories

~33g
protein

~3.5g
fat

Low
cholesterol

That’s more protein per ounce than chicken, beef, or pork, with a fraction of the fat. Rabbit is also naturally rich in vitamin B12, iron, phosphorus, and selenium — and its fine muscle fiber makes it easy to digest.

Why Rabbit?

Lean by nature. Rabbit carries far less fat than most red meats, without sacrificing flavor or protein.

Gentle on digestion. Mild flavor and fine texture make it a great option for sensitive stomachs or picky eaters.

A novel protein. If you’re managing food allergies or just tired of chicken and beef, rabbit is a genuine change of pace.
