Living in a different continent one doesn't really have the opportunity to eat much kangeroo. However, you can still eat buffalo, bison, crocodile, etc.
I sampled kangeroo back in 1990 when I was in Alice Springs. The daytrip was about the aboriginal culture. The roo was caught and cooked in a traditional method and then we all got to sample it. I don't recall much about it but I don't think I wanted to be sick over it. Actually, the thought of the witchity grubs made me feel far worse.
Would I eat it again if it was on the menu? Probably not. Mainly because I try to limit how many species I eat.
Looking back now, that daytrip now seems more exploitative than anything else.
