- Why Australian?
- Australian Lamb
Our lambs graze on pure, natural Australian grasslands and pastures throughout their lives, resulting in lamb that's delicious and mild tasting, flavorfully lean and tender, and free of artificial additives and hormone growth promotants. These are just some of the many reasons you - and your guests - will love naturally raised Australian lamb. With little-to-no bone, and well-trimmed of fat and waste, there are economic advantages as well.

Nutrition of Lamb
Australian lamb is lean and low in cholesterol compared to other animal proteins. In fact, half the fat in lamb is monounsaturated, the same type of fatty acids found in olive oil.
For health-conscious restaurants or your healthy menu development, here are the lamb highlights:
- Australian lamb products are lean and naturally contain 13 essential nutrients required for good health, including Iron, Zinc, Omega-3 and B vitamins.
- Lamb is one of the best sources of well absorbed iron (otherwise known as heme-iron) and zinc, more effective than the iron and zinc found in plant-based foods.
- Not only is Australian lamb lean (when trimmed of visible fat), because it is
- pasture raised, it is a valuable source of Omega 3 fatty acids, the same 'healthy' fat found in fish.
