White or red meat? Both my general! Logically, veal belongs to the category of red meats like beef. However, you should know that myoglobin, a pigment rich in iron, gives its red color to meat, and that it appears during prolonged efforts requiring the muscles. The youngest calves feed exclusively on mother's milk, which is low in iron, which limits the production of myoglobin and keeps their flesh very white. Thus, the more a calf has grown and diversified its diet while roaming, the more its meat will be pink to red.
