Why don't Americans eat bunnies anymore? The rabbit meat market in modern America is so small that much of it is imported from countries like New Zealand, Spain, or even China. And even then, it is tiny compared to other markets like poultry. The rabbit meat market in the US is around 800 tons per year, while the beef market is 12.7 million tons, or nearly 16,000 times larger by volume.
But this wasn't always so. Up through the 1960's, rabbit was a staple of American cuisine and diet. Look through older cookbooks - most have an entire section on rabbit. Rabbit was considered an affordable and accessible meat that could be prepared anywhere from simple and quick to extremely fancy and ornate. Hunted rabbit meat was also an important part of the market, and local rabbit pelt products used to be sold at many stores.
Why did this change after the 1960's? Why did Boomers decide to stop eating bunnies?
