Ostrich is the lean red meat from the flightless bird commonly farmed for its meat and leather; it is used like beef in many cuisines and is prized for its mild flavor and firm texture. It is a low-fat, high-protein option — providing about 25.9g of protein per 100g — and is often substituted for beef or venison in steaks, burgers and stews. Nutritionally it supplies important micronutrients found in red meat, notably vitamin B12 and selenium, and is valued for its high-quality amino acid profile and lower total and saturated fat compared with many other red meats.
