Much "choma" or barbecued meat is made with goat meat and is a great delicacy in many parts of the country.
The tables below include tabular lists for selected basic foods, compiled from United States Dept. of Agriculture sources.Included for each food is its weight in grams, its calories, and (also in grams,) the amount of protein, carbohydrates, dietary fiber, fat, and saturated fat. [1]
A single serving of beef liver exceeds the tolerable upper intake level of vitamin A. [4] 100 g cod liver contains 5 mg of vitamin A and 100 μg of vitamin D. [5] Liver contains large amounts of vitamin B 12, and this was one of the factors that led to the discovery of the vitamin. [6]
Per capita meat consumption and GDP 1990–2017 Mitigation options for reducing methane emission from livestock include a change in diet, that is consuming less meat and dairy.

A 2021 review found an increase of 11–51% risk of multiple cancer per 100g/d increment of red meat, and an increase of 8–72% risk of multiple cancer per 50g/d increment of processed meat. [ 89 ] Cooking muscle meat creates heterocyclic amines (HCAs), which are thought to increase cancer risk in humans.
Foods with the most satiation per calorie are often: high in certain proteinase inhibitors that suppress appetite - e.g. potatoes [7] [8] high in protein (which takes longer to digest than other energy sources) - e.g. meat; low in glycemic index (in which the carbohydrates take longer to digest) - e.g. oats
Glycemic load of a 100 g serving of food can be calculated as its carbohydrate content measured in grams (g), multiplied by the food's GI, and divided by 100. For example, watermelon has a GI of 72. A 100 g serving of watermelon has 5 g of available carbohydrates (it contains a lot of water), making the calculation (5 × 72)/100=3.6, so the GL ...
