I fully agree with Dean. Thanks for saying it Dean. It's a disgusting display of total ignorance. And it's correct, soup kitchens, food banks and such would love to have that for table fare. I suppose the beef,pig, chicken and turkey lobbies, Krogers, Meiers, Safeway, etc would raise a ruckus to get it stopped though. Discrimination you know.... ruining our business! Then the FDA would declare it unsafe. In the early 19th century Laplanders and reindeer were brought into Alaska in an attempt to get commercial reindeer farming going. They put them out into the right habitat in remote places. It worked quite well but became a favorite and exotic table fare in SanFrancisco so the beef lobby whined and got it stopped on sanitary grounds, which was total BS. What could be healthier than meat with 1/3 the fat and almost 3x the protein as beef? The reindeer are still here and in places like Nome raised for antlers as an aphrodisiac and sold to Asians and well mixed in with some of the caribou herds where they just went wild.
