Default Is it possible to be allergic to deer meat?

I love deer meat but it seems like every time I eat some my stomach goes crazy. It is possible to be allergic to it? I have never heard of anyone but I have heard of people that are allergic to beef.

Anyone?

Anything is possible I guess.

Maybe you need cooking lessons.

There was a post a while back about being allergic to the deer itself when skinning, and
4 or 5 people said they were pretty allergic. I guess it's possible, but I would think being allergic to
the deer (as opposed to cooked meat) would be a lot more common.

Maybe you cooked a spoiled deer or your cook doesn't know his way around the kitchen.

Anything is possible. However it could be that your digestive system is outta whack. It takes alot to digest meat as compared to other items we eat. Does this just happen with steak or with burger too?

The reason I ask is because I have had a simular problem. The burger didn't bother me but the steaks and chops did.

I reckon it's possible....I would think it could also be something the deer eat.

I think it has to do with how"rich" venison is compared to beef...........It is way leanerand more dense meat, ever notice that if you ate the same amount of beef you don't get as full as you do eating venison?
