Is duck considered red meat?

Best Answers

Duck and goose are poultry and considered "white" meat. Because they are birds of flight, however, the breast meat is darker than chicken and turkey breast. This is because more oxygen is needed by muscles doing work, and the oxygen is delivered to those muscles by the red cells in the blood. read more

Not only is duck not red meat, it's considered fish (in some contexts). There is an Italian-American tradition (probably expanded from something similar in southern Italy) on Christmas Eve of serving the Feast of the Seven Fishes. read more
