Bone marrow is made up mostly of fat so am not sure if there is some other reason not to eat it.
It can vary from animal to animal.
Rough idea
1 ounce serving
Calories 225
Fat 24 grams
Protein 2 grams
Phosphorus 30 grams
Potassium little to none.
Sodium 0 grams

Thanks.

I read somewhere that it is good for you.

I have heard its suppose to be pretty tasty.
It was and still is considered a good energy source because of it amount of calories it has per ounce. I am not sure what health benefits to it are as it is pretty limited in vitamins and minerals.
-
Can I just say "Icky!"
-
I have eaten it and it IS very good. Try it on a soup... :popcorn;
-
I wouldnt say it was healthy considering the fat content.
-
It's supposed to carry important nutrient and protein.

That's what I thought, too. ???

I've never heard of eating bone marrow but that sounds awful.
Looks like empty calories, except for fat and who needs that?
no thanks for me.

We were discussing this very subject tonight, sister bought a Honey Baked Ham and she saved the bone for Ham Bone Soup?? i think that is what she called it, said the bone marrow is what gives it the flavor? :twocents;

This has to go with the eating of tripe.

My grandfather was a butcher and he used to suck the marrow out of the bones after my grandmother cooked them. She made a lot of stews and soups, she grew up in NYC during ther Depression so food was scarce and they had to cook whatever was available. He never got a cold, was always perfectly healthy, had nice, white teeth and jet black hair until the day he died at the age of 76. He had a stroke but they never knew why, he had normal BP and low cholesterol. It was just his time.

Wow! There's definitely something to be said for the lifestyles of earlier generations.

People were more active back then also. They walked everywhere you had to go plus there were a lot of manual labor jobs like on the docks (where a lot of my relatives worked). Even when I was young I had to walk everywhere--we only had one car and my dad used it for work. I see kids today who live by me who need a ride to school and the school is 1 1/2 blocks away from their house! They don't walk to school ever, they're spoiled! :D Then they have after school activities down in the field which is 3 blocks away from me and they get rides there also. Lazy!

Jello is made with bone marrow.
I'm not sure if kids today are lazy or smart. There are so many abductions today that most parents won't let their kids walk to school. :twocents;

Jello is made with bone marrow.
Gelatin is a protein substance derived from collagen, a natural protein present in the tendons,
ligaments, and tissues of mammals. It is produced by boiling the connective tissues, bones and
skins of animals, usually cows and pigs. Oh boy... who wants Jello!?!
-
give me some cherry flavored ligament juice any day lol
bone marrow is also what give soups and stews that 'savory' mouthfeel

(Alene writing) I remember as a small child, way before I understood how gross it was, my mother would fry up this delicious ham steak. It always had a hollow bone in it and in that bone was a small piece of marrow. It would shrink and get crispy while frying and I would always claim this bone as mine. That tiny little piece of fried marrow was oh so delicious!!! I doubt that I could eat it now, knowing what it is...
...but, supposedly our ancient ancestors were scavengers and survived by scavenging the bones from other animals' kills and feasting on the fat rich marrow inside.
