Notes:
In order to account for changes in veal production technology and to provide more details than presently available, nutrient composition of the lean from milk-fed calves (Bob) and special fed veal (SFV) were determined. Values for proximate composition, cholesterol, 8 fatty acids, 8 vitamins, and 8 inorganic nutrients were obtained. Bob veal tended to have lower fat content and significantly (P〈0.05) higher levels of cholesterol and Fe than SFV. Percent true retentions were above 100% for fat, cholesterol and energy content. Bob and SFV are good sources for niacin, vitamin B12, P and Zn, but contain slightly higher amounts of cholesterol than literature values for beef, pork or lamb.
