Venison

Venison is the meat of a deer. It is a lean, red meat that is often hunted for food. It can be prepared in various ways, including roasting, grilling, and stewing.

Venison is used as a protein source in various food products, often in processed meats like sausages and jerky. Its distinct flavor makes it a popular choice for consumers seeking alternative meat options.

Venison is a source of protein, iron, and B vitamins. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers venison a common food item. International bodies like the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated various food components, but specific evaluations of venison itself are not typically categorized in the same way as additives. No significant health controversies are associated with typical consumption of venison.
