Goat is not very popular in European and North American cuisine. Probably because it is not available in tenderloin or steak form. However, goats are not confined, less likely to be fed grain, not implanted with growth hormones or antibiotices, and not castrated. Further, it has more iron and protein than most meats, and less cholesterol and saturated fats. Goat meat, also known as chevon, is actually one of the cleanest, healthiest meats available.
