EMU! Yum?

So I had Emu for thanksgiving dinner.  Yep, that's a little different.  It was pretty good though.  Lean and beef-like, it was tender and juicy.  Kind of weird though eating a meat you've never had before.  You never know what it's going to taste like, how the texture is going to be.  It's a complete surprise, even when you have some expectation.  You've been told beef, you look it up and get told beef, it even looks like beef, but your head, your logical, know-it-all head says, bird.  It makes me wonder what goes on in the heads of tofu-meat eaters that allows them to think meat when they know, believe and are committed to the fact that they are eating tofu.  Interesting.
