Is bear really fattening???

to answer the question you wanted to ask. Yes, all alcohol is a bad choice. Not necessarily because of the calories though, while Alcohol does contain 7 calories per gram, that's not the issue. the issue is because of how alcohol is perceived in the body. The body perceives it as a poison (essentially), and because it can be burned, it prioritizes it above other types of energy (I.E. carbs), so when you drink alcohol, the body essentially puts other calories on hold until it's gone. This is fine if you don't do it often and don't do it in large quantities, but if you have it often or in large quantities, it can and will cause you to gain fat. This is true of any type of alcohol.

this doesn't include any of the other reasons alcohol is bad for you either, I.E. liver damage, kidney damage, brain issues, decreased ability to make good choices, the hangover factor, dehydration...etc.

Someone wrote on their experience on basspro website:

I had full intentions on trying it one night at camp a guy had a big round steak off a fall bear. MAN the SMELL that came off that!! the best way I can describe it was like a very wet shaggy dog someone rolled arround on top of the wood stove. Although in '98 my uncle and I got a large cow moose that was not good table fare at all either. It almost turned me against moose meat which is my favorite wild meat.

Someone posted about rabbit the other day, so you never know about bear...

All beers vary in calories. Most micros are pretty bad. Wheat beers and IPAs are the worst. Eat This Not That just posted an article a few days ago about best and worst beers.

It was Elmer Fudd or Yosemite Sam who posted about rabbitt.
