There's an enormous ostrich farm in Mexico that's also trying to introduce it as a new red meat...but it costs twice as much so people will simply stick with what they know. If they truly want to replace cattle with ostrich they have to make it price competitive or why would we bother? Personally I can't wait to try it.
Despite the less food, less land, less water.... Ostritch requires more labor and equipment so at the same scale as beef, they end up costing more to farm and thus more expensive than beef.
Back when I was younger, one of my neighbors had ostriches, and when they went on a vacation, I used to take care of their horses and ostrichs. They had 3 ostriches. I don't know about any other ostriches, but my neighbor's ostriches were friendly.
Agreed, I would try it for double the price of beef but not eat it regularly, the entire reason I eat more chicken and beef is purely price- though I do like both.
They inject brine in chicken meat in UK and meat from Brazil . Hate it too because when you fry the chicken or roast it, it starts leaking a lot of water and shrinks to half the size!
I’m not surprised that ostrich is emerging food in Vietnam. Vietnamese love good food and are open to new ingredients. Ostrich is considered as exotic and expensive meat.
I love how you dont just do the foot work, but you also follow it through the entire industry. Love your content, and I always try to watch it when it comes out. Lovely Stuff!
In the 90’s my uncle jumped on this bandwagon He bought I think 4 of them and began breeding. They were pretty aggressive meat was ok Eggs were very difficult to crack and tasted basically like a chicken egg, I don’t remember what the meat was like but I do remember my dad cooking a giant leg.
In Vietnam there are a lot of small local own business, and a lot of local family own farmer. Not like in the US it been taken over by large company. I can see local farmer in Vietnam raising small number of ostrich because investment is smaller than cattle farm.
Do you eat pork or sausages? Do Indians like central european cousine? Smoked meat, many types of noodles and dumplings, very developed sausages making proceses, plenty of cabbage onion and potatoes and many types of grains. We have also way more developed bakeries than in western europe. That's the place we usually start our day.
Pigeon is making a comeback as well. Pigeon seems like such a bachelor food. One roasted bird per man with a pint of ale and maybe some fruit or something.
@@rociomartines916 What was the cost? did you get about 2 breasts? I see a lot of smaller, less edible doves in my area, but I know of a really nice big one in a nest at a retail store. IT looks like a feral one that escaped and built a nest. Are the eggs good?
"Bò né" is a popular Vietnamese dish, known for its sizzling presentation and rich, savory flavors. The name "bò né" roughly translates to "dodging beef," referring to the way the beef is served on a hot, sizzling plate, and diners must be cautious to avoid the splattering oil. The dish typically consists of thinly sliced beef, often marinated, and cooked on a cast iron pan or skillet with other ingredients like pâté, eggs, onions, and sometimes sausages. It's usually served with a side of fresh vegetables, pickles, and a crispy baguette (bánh mì) to soak up the flavorful juices. The interactive and sizzling nature of the dish, along with its bold flavors, makes it a favorite breakfast or brunch option in Vietnam.
what turned me off for ostriches is that when i was a kid i saw a big freaking egg in the supermarket, checked the price and found that it costed me as much as an 18" NY Pizza. after seeing that i figured that ostrich meat would be just as expensive if not more and would make wagyu look like cheap meat. so i never ever tried it. that and the fact that it had practically zero advertising at all until the Great Emu War that australia harped on about in the 90s basically meant that it didnt just fall off my radar, it wasnt even registering on my radar to begin with.
Emus are definitely a relative of Ostriches, they're both Ratites, together with Rheas, Cassowaries, and Kiwis, and also the extinct Moas and Elephant Birds.
The subtlety being that they all evolved independently. Current theory is each modern species became flightless after settling down in their respective regions. So instead of developing flightless once, they developed it each time. That's all to say, 'relative' is a vague term. Indeed they are all Ratites but their evolutionary tree is very nonstandard and interesting.
In the North of SA, they were let out int the Flinders Ranges. I can remember it being in shops but was too expensive. It would have been far more sensible to eat Emu in Australia. Owners were charging exorbitant prices to even visit the property....for school trips etc. I will try it again when I visit Vietnam.
We had a chain of fast food restaurants here in Brazil which had Ostrich steaks on the menu. They were delicious, but sadly are not on the menu anymore.
Awesome to see content from you dude. Huge fan of yours since your escapades with Sonny. And he is always trying to get you to eat crazy stuff like tarantulas. At least you are enjoying something normal today.
Well done! I was saying for a few year ostrich is a good farm animal for Thailand and SE Asia. Glad to see Vietnam took it, but still not properly picked up in Thailand. The biggest producer of Ostrich is South Africa and then Iran.
Problem is Beef is not a favored meat in Thailand for a few reasaons, and a beef replacement not really a market. Also Thais like to deep fry everything, I have lived here for 9 years and the main cooking method for anything is dump it in a vat of boiling oil. I'm not sure the ostrich meat would hold up other than being a chewy mess.
Dude your channel is killing the RUclips game!

There used to be a Bar and Grill in Cincinnati Ohio that served Ostrich burgers on the menu. It was a little too lean for me. It tastes like 90/10 ground beef. I think if the burgers had been fried using beef tallow or lard. They would have been much tastier. Yeah it would have ruined it's healthier benefit, but some things ketchup and mayo just can't compensate for.
My friend from high school's grandparents farmed ostrich and sold it to niche weird organic grocery stores. They did emu also. Sadly it's since shut down but I've had it and it's delicious.
2:49 the whole world is not United States or Australia it is failed in those places doesn't mean it failed everywhere in this world, Western men's idea ! but again the whole world is not west
you are ignoring the obvious just to act defensive. ostrich is also popular in south africa and vietnam but its selective and relatively small scale compared to the push from the US and australia with its prospects. we are talking 2 VASTLY different relative scales here. a 2 billion $ industry vs some remote small scale farms.
A local farm down the street from me does Bison burgers and Ostrich burgers. I had the Ostrich burger, and it was really, really good. It's red just like beef but is much leaner. I have no idea why Ostrich isn't everywhere in the U.S.
I remember there was a bit of a fad around ostrich meat in my part of canada when I was a kid in the 90's and I absolutely loved it. there was a man who sold it at the farmers market we went to and I would always ask my dad for ostrich burgers. it only lasted a short time but I still keep my eye out for another chance to have some.
This is really funny. I never tried to look into it, but where I grew up, we had tons if farms around the residential neighborhoods (especially in the 90s). I remember walking out into dirt fields behind my grandma's house, in the middle of the city, mind you, and seeing random ostrich and emu farms in peoples' large backyards, for lack of a better word. We used to walk alomg the fence and visit all the birds. I always wondered why it was so popular. You still see emu, but the ostrich just up and disappeared at one point, it felt like. I guess, now I know why.
I've always wanted to try ostrich meat, I'm not surprised it tastes like beef. I've cooked goose breast in a crockpot and everyone believed it was roast beef lol.
Honestly I'm curious if anyone harvests the younger ones. Doing a whole animal roast with one of the month old ones would be a really cool looking centerpiece dish at a meal. Probably more tender too
Kinda makes me feel bad for that. They deserve to live some semblance of life before slaughter for consumption. Plus you heard they only get 60 eggs per breeding season and they had a decent sized operation. So, growing them to full size would probably be ideal.
@@LittleKing115 yeah I was going to say it's not 60 total😂 it's 60 per female which well is nothing compared to the 300 and some per year for a chicken is still pretty large number when compared to things like cattle and sheep.
The AI generated bits... just... Why? Thank you that you included just a few. They are extremely recognizable and feel almost like a low effort insert than an experiment how people would react.
I used to live in Central America and it's a surprise that they don't farm ostriches. There's plenty of space that was cleared to farm veggies or cows that might make more money growing bigass birds. Ostrich meat sounds interesting. Mammal meat started making me sick when I was in my teens and I haven't eaten it in decades. I don't miss it. But I love chicken and other birds. So now I want to try ostrich steak and sausage or jerky.
I've eaten Bo Ne with ostrich in Vietnam. That dish is so wonderful that the ostrich (similar to steak) doesn't make any difference. Unlike this Brit, Andrew Fraser, I wasn't upset at all. I'm not sure why, but Ostrich savings never seem to pan out like renewable energy and electrification.
Is a bird not a dinosaur because they have never found any vertebrate leaps in evolution from any animal transitioning from dinosaur to bird or vise versa.😁
Cheap protein is always appreciated in high-population, low-income countries. Today there a so many sauces and cooking methods to make just about anything appealing.
I love Ostrich meat. The meat I had was like a mix of veal and premium air chilled chicken. I think it takes less landmass per pound/kilo and generates far less greenhouse emissions than beef so I hope America adopts it so it becomes cheaper and more available to eat. Same with sheep.
I know real stock footage might hard to find, but the use of weird AI visuals is so off putting that even its presence makes the video seem less professional overall, at least in my opinion. wonderful topic though!
You are wrong Ostrich farming took off in Europe in the 1980's . Blokes I worked with were buying eggs for £1200, thought they were onto a good thing, having a farming background I told them it was a severely risky investment, that they would be reliant on the farmers honesty if an egg went bad and addled who's to know if it is your egg or someone else's or the farmers. That the meat markets were traditionally very conservative in tastes. Room for alternates was limited. However they had swallowed the sales pitch hook line and sinker and just laughed at me, I repeated my warning and left them to it, strangely the subject was never raised again a bit like the ostrich.
Very cool video and exciting topic. I learned about a new dish and an animal that I know little about. I love to hear about this type of thing, hope I get to try some soon. On another note, I take issue with the use of a film projector sound and 60s style type-font to show how long ago the early 90's were. use 80s music and VHS aesthetics. idk if anyone else cares but it felt silly. I would also like for the background section to be more of you telling the story rather than AI images, more natural, would make me feel like I'm on a tour. Keep up the interesting work!
8:37 the bandages are from bumble foot walking on harsh mesh flooring that creates pressure points. This is common in small pocket pets kept in suboptimal conditions and birds that are kept on poopy or unnatural and uncomfortable surfaces. The leg brace is for bow lega and weakness from walking on slippery surfaces and the legs literally being too weak to keep them together. This can also happen in ducks from lack of Niacin. Maybe he doesnt know, but the ppl who did it do. Most viewers probably dont know either. not saying these animals are abused or not but there are indicators that at least some of them dont seem to be doing well.
I can't say I'm a fan of the weird uncanny valley AI videos, but I love your work Edit: I didn't mean his whole video was AI generated, or that he used an LLM to generate the script, I only meant the 3 or 4 instances when there was an AI generated image, or video totalling less than 10 seconds. Y'all need to calm the fuck down.
@@Niand82 We are talking about a couple of seconds of ai generated contents here. Not some chat gpt string it together 100% "Make me a video" out of this idea. So no, calling him out for uncanny valley ai videos is not right. Unless your intelligent hasnt caught up to you yet @Skunk. And no nothing wrong with using ai content unless you put in the work. Think Ray William Johonson. All his work is 90 percent ai gen but his story telling is what sells.
Woah, a lot of unnecessary anger here on both sides for something that's just an opinion. I'm just not a fan of animated AI generated images because they detract a bit from the immersion, but when you can't find/get the B-roll you need for a shot its a great way to help show the audience the feelings you're trying to project
@@Niand82 no man i dont, that is why i asked. I dont know if he is implying that the whole video is ai gen or that he uses a couple of ai gen images. There are a bunch of useless ai gen videos right now and comparing his work to useless videos out there to his work is sadly unfair to the creator.
Might replace my chickens with ostriches, why not? Also, could you make a video exploring the "legal substances" in Thailand (greenery and shroomies, kratom etc.)? Kratom has a very neat history of use in SEA and most people do not know about it -- some cultures still use it. Kratom is native to SEA as well.
ostrich are a b and a half to maintain compared to some chicken coops. i own chickens and they basically do nothing. ostrich are loud, fast, and aggressive. they bite and kick and will try breaking out of anything.
Wow interesting video, thanks, I didn't even know Australia had ostrich, so does this mean there are ostriches scattered in Australia in the bush, should bring it back in the menu it'd be really good, thanks again I just joint your channel☺
Like, you can stop a nearby local coffee shop, which is quite abundant around medium to big cities, have a cup of coffee (usually no more than $1.50) and ask the waiter to charge you phone, they even give their own charger if you dont have one available So I think that wouldn't be much of an issue
if phone charging is an issue for you at all. just buy a big power brick. otherwise ask a coffee shop or something. traveling to any place..... this would be the LEAST of my concerns. high cap charging bricks are dirt cheap these days.
I would love to eat ostrich or emu, I think the biggest reason it never took of is that people hesitate to try new stuff, not to forget that people never have been told that they are more Environmentaly friendly, what probably also made it less attractive to consumers is that is and whas actually more expensive, i think they price would get alot lower once people figure out how to breed and farm them while avoiding the downsides of it, but people would have to buy ostrich products while this happens, wich they didn't because of the mentioned reasons ... I hope ostrich will replace up to 30% of beef one day ...
Basically what happened is absolutely zero effort was done to actually make the public aware of the commodity well at the same time a lot of farmers put a lot of money into developing ostrich and emu and then had no one to sell it to because nobody told anyone! Thus the farmers became disenfranchised and decided to never touch it again. This was a marketing failure not a farming failure. I will say that emu are probably a better choice than ostrich though. I'm sure once emu get established there will be people who want to do ostrich too, but overall email are a lot easier and produce more useful products.
I would definitely eat ostrich if it was available. When it comes to me, you don’t have a huge selection in the United States. Mostly just chicken, beef, pork, and seafood. I’ve had venison before, but I didn’t like it. The only way I can eat it is if it’s in chili. Then I can’t taste the gamy meat.
Deer meat is best used for Hamburger. And it's usually mixed with beef fat so it tastes like the best hamburger you've ever had...but I agree. Deer steak is just not good. Elk is even worse. It's too lean and gamey.
Venison is a real catch all term. Different deer species will taste different and have different levels of gameyness. Worst venison is also used for antelope which are even more different animals. Its like lumping sheep, goats and cows into a single type of meat. Aditonally gameyness useually means the venison is overcooked. This and other preparation mistakes that come from inexperience and over generalisation.

Yep, but they inject it with that slushy brine to bulk it up and fool the customer. I just hate it.

Over 25 years ago north of Tampa was a farm that raised ostrich for meat and eggs.
I remember that im from the same area

I had ostrich meat, in Boston of all places. It was quite good. Tasted basically like. A good steak. But yeah, it was expensive.
Well researched, well presented.. great stuff.
I used to live in Central America and it's a surprise that they don't farm ostriches. There's plenty of space that was cleared to farm veggies or cows that might make more money growing bigass birds.
Ostrich meat sounds interesting. Mammal meat started making me sick when I was in my teens and I haven't eaten it in decades. I don't miss it. But I love chicken and other birds. So now I want to try ostrich steak and sausage or jerky.
Do they also use the feathers to make dusters I know ostrich feathers are known to be the best for it
andrew this looks amazing!! i wish i can try some.
It uses Ai-Generation though.
I live about an hour and a half away from an ostrich farm in Arizona. I had no idea that puffed their necks and made that sound either. 😮
I've eaten Bo Ne with ostrich in Vietnam. That dish is so wonderful that the ostrich (similar to steak) doesn't make any difference. Unlike this Brit, Andrew Fraser, I wasn't upset at all. I'm not sure why, but Ostrich savings never seem to pan out like renewable energy and electrification.
Every few decades ostrich becomes they hype but then fizzles out.

Cool videos mate! Keep it up
I would Love too either try the Meat or Egg's ...

dinosaur meat
Scientifically, you are not wrong!
Also why they say taste like chicken 😂… but actually I have had many times and like it❤
Is a bird not a dinosaur because they have never found any vertebrate leaps in evolution from any animal transitioning from dinosaur to bird or vise versa.😁
@lactusgalacto1174 the smoothest of brains you have.
@@leggonarm9835 Prove your theory jughead.Wha will it be boy?
Cheap protein is always appreciated in high-population, low-income countries.
Today there a so many sauces and cooking methods to make just about anything appealing.
I love Ostrich meat. The meat I had was like a mix of veal and premium air chilled chicken. I think it takes less landmass per pound/kilo and generates far less greenhouse emissions than beef so I hope America adopts it so it becomes cheaper and more available to eat. Same with sheep.
The bands are to restrain and build muscle (meat) on it's legs.
Ostrich is amazing. I wish it was more available here
had ostrich in outh africa and i cant say it tasted bad , it was pretty good actually
I know real stock footage might hard to find, but the use of weird AI visuals is so off putting that even its presence makes the video seem less professional overall, at least in my opinion. wonderful topic though!
You are wrong Ostrich farming took off in Europe in the 1980's . Blokes I worked with were buying eggs for £1200, thought they were onto a good thing, having a farming background I told them it was a severely risky investment, that they would be reliant on the farmers honesty if an egg went bad and addled who's to know if it is your egg or someone else's or the farmers. That the meat markets were traditionally very conservative in tastes. Room for alternates was limited. However they had swallowed the sales pitch hook line and sinker and just laughed at me, I repeated my warning and left them to it, strangely the subject was never raised again a bit like the ostrich.
Too bad it’s so short…we want more videos!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
A month old ostrich can be sold as a chicken already. That's insane return on investment.
Very cool video and exciting topic. I learned about a new dish and an animal that I know little about. I love to hear about this type of thing, hope I get to try some soon.
On another note, I take issue with the use of a film projector sound and 60s style type-font to show how long ago the early 90's were. use 80s music and VHS aesthetics. idk if anyone else cares but it felt silly.
I would also like for the background section to be more of you telling the story rather than AI images, more natural, would make me feel like I'm on a tour.
Keep up the interesting work!
Love your videos one of the best
8:37
the bandages are from bumble foot walking on harsh mesh flooring that creates pressure points. This is common in small pocket pets kept in suboptimal conditions and birds that are kept on poopy or unnatural and uncomfortable surfaces.
The leg brace is for bow lega and weakness from walking on slippery surfaces and the legs literally being too weak to keep them together. This can also happen in ducks from lack of Niacin.
Maybe he doesnt know, but the ppl who did it do. Most viewers probably dont know either. not saying these animals are abused or not but there are indicators that at least some of them dont seem to be doing well.
Hate RUclips for disable the fk thumb down.
Very interesting video. I learned a lot.
I can't say I'm a fan of the weird uncanny valley AI videos, but I love your work
Edit: I didn't mean his whole video was AI generated, or that he used an LLM to generate the script, I only meant the 3 or 4 instances when there was an AI generated image, or video totalling less than 10 seconds. Y'all need to calm the fuck down.
What are you implying?
@@Niand82 We are talking about a couple of seconds of ai generated contents here. Not some chat gpt string it together 100% "Make me a video" out of this idea. So no, calling him out for uncanny valley ai videos is not right. Unless your intelligent hasnt caught up to you yet @Skunk. And no nothing wrong with using ai content unless you put in the work. Think Ray William Johonson. All his work is 90 percent ai gen but his story telling is what sells.
Woah, a lot of unnecessary anger here on both sides for something that's just an opinion. I'm just not a fan of animated AI generated images because they detract a bit from the immersion, but when you can't find/get the B-roll you need for a shot its a great way to help show the audience the feelings you're trying to project
Pros and cons, you know?
@@Niand82 no man i dont, that is why i asked. I dont know if he is implying that the whole video is ai gen or that he uses a couple of ai gen images. There are a bunch of useless ai gen videos right now and comparing his work to useless videos out there to his work is sadly unfair to the creator.
“With the hearty taste of chicken and steak combined in one easily farmable bird!”
12:12 is such cool shot. I am curious if you eat that? Looks like the inspiration for Doom
No those are bones. You can use them to make soup stock (and that's probably why they're there), but that's about it.
What’s with the AI clips? You had plenty of stock footage
Might replace my chickens with ostriches, why not? Also, could you make a video exploring the "legal substances" in Thailand (greenery and shroomies, kratom etc.)? Kratom has a very neat history of use in SEA and most people do not know about it -- some cultures still use it. Kratom is native to SEA as well.
an ostrich kick can kill u.. 😅
ostrich are a b and a half to maintain compared to some chicken coops. i own chickens and they basically do nothing. ostrich are loud, fast, and aggressive. they bite and kick and will try breaking out of anything.
Wow interesting video, thanks, I didn't even know Australia had ostrich, so does this mean there are ostriches scattered in Australia in the bush, should bring it back in the menu it'd be really good, thanks again I just joint your channel☺
excellent video!
The AI artwork is such a distraction from the well-produced video.
it's a cancer
I'm planning to travel to Vietnam soon. Real question: What's the availability for charging a smartphone?
It's still the same as what you charge
Like, you can stop a nearby local coffee shop, which is quite abundant around medium to big cities, have a cup of coffee (usually no more than $1.50) and ask the waiter to charge you phone, they even give their own charger if you dont have one available
So I think that wouldn't be much of an issue
if phone charging is an issue for you at all. just buy a big power brick. otherwise ask a coffee shop or something. traveling to any place..... this would be the LEAST of my concerns. high cap charging bricks are dirt cheap these days.
I would love to eat ostrich or emu,
I think the biggest reason it never took of is that people hesitate to try new stuff, not to forget that people never have been told that they are more Environmentaly friendly, what probably also made it less attractive to consumers is that is and whas actually more expensive, i think they price would get alot lower once people figure out how to breed and farm them while avoiding the downsides of it, but people would have to buy ostrich products while this happens, wich they didn't because of the mentioned reasons ...
I hope ostrich will replace up to 30% of beef one day ...
Basically what happened is absolutely zero effort was done to actually make the public aware of the commodity well at the same time a lot of farmers put a lot of money into developing ostrich and emu and then had no one to sell it to because nobody told anyone! Thus the farmers became disenfranchised and decided to never touch it again. This was a marketing failure not a farming failure. I will say that emu are probably a better choice than ostrich though. I'm sure once emu get established there will be people who want to do ostrich too, but overall email are a lot easier and produce more useful products.
Ostrich is soooooo good, i love it
I would definitely eat ostrich if it was available. When it comes to me, you don’t have a huge selection in the United States. Mostly just chicken, beef, pork, and seafood. I’ve had venison before, but I didn’t like it. The only way I can eat it is if it’s in chili. Then I can’t taste the gamy meat.
Deer meat is best used for Hamburger. And it's usually mixed with beef fat so it tastes like the best hamburger you've ever had...but I agree. Deer steak is just not good. Elk is even worse. It's too lean and gamey.
Venison is a real catch all term. Different deer species will taste different and have different levels of gameyness. Worst venison is also used for antelope which are even more different animals.
Its like lumping sheep, goats and cows into a single type of meat.
Aditonally gameyness useually means the venison is overcooked. This and other preparation mistakes that come from inexperience and over generalisation.
Your so lucky you get to live there and enjoy the lifestyle. I would totally eat an ostrich burger!!!!!!!!!!! 😊
Sweet Hart would be proud of you..
😁.
For a while we had neighbors with emu. Most delicious jerky I've ever had!
I hate to burst your bubbles, but pho is the ultimate breakfast food. Lol
Wow. Never had pho for breakfast . Interesting
I like bo né. I don't mind pho for breakfast too
As a Vietnamese I or any Vietnamese I know never consider pho as ultimate breakfast.
Cannot compare $1 breakfast to a $10 one...
Can't find info on leather spot in your description
Those birds creep me out. I know im not alone with that feeling.
All the more reason to eat them!
