Goosemobile

The Goosemobile is a bit of an odd business. Described as a "mobile meat market,", it tours around the state, servicing many South Dakota communities. Tom Neuberger raises poultry and operates the Goosemobile, but offers products from a variety of South Dakota producers. They market naturally low fat meats raised on grasses free of hazardous chemicals. Their animals and birds range freely with a choice of diet originally intended for them to eat. Their feed is not genetically modified or laced with antibiotics or growth hormones. Research indicates that the natural "original diet" produces foods with more omega-3s & CLA (good fat), Vitamins E & A and beta carotene. Therefore, they strive to grass feed their animals as much as possible, focusing on animal welfare, the environment and the economic well being of our soil. Nutritional benefits from grass fed animals are significant. Meat and eggs from grass fed animals are lower in fat and calories but higher in good fats such as Omega-3 fatty acids and "conjugates linoleic acid" (CLA).
