Goat meat is the most widely consumed meat in the world, a staple of Mexican, Indian, Greek, Muslin and southern Italian cuisines. It is lower in fat than chicken and higher in protein than beef. A 3 1/2 ounce serving of cooked, roasted meat contains 143 calories; 27 grams protein; 3 grams fat; 3.7 milligrams iron; 86 milligrams sodium; and 75 milligrams cholesterol. It is considered red meat.

The demand for goat meat has increased in the United States, especially in the Southeast. This is due to the influx of ethnic groups from areas of the world where goat meat comprises a significant portion of the diet and American's willingness to try ethnic foods. Since goat meat is often served in specialty dishes centered on festival and holiday events in the US and is commonly found on buffet tables in Jamaica, Mexico, and other favorite resort spots, chances are that you have eaten goat.
