# Carnivorous Culture Handbooks ‘Meat Eater’ by Steven Rinella Documents Adventures with By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2013-01-24 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meat-eater-by-steven-rinella References: [uncrate](http://uncrate.com/stuff/meat-eater/) & [amazon](http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0385529813/uncrate-20?tag=trenhunt0f-20) While fans of meat might take the act of eating the fleshy stuff lightly, ‘Meat Eater’ by Steven Rinella documents his relationship with hunting. The book helps to shine light on the illusive nature of hunting that, more often than not, is not common practice amongst those who consume meat. Rinella documents his experiences with hunting and details the trips he has partaken in over the course of about 27 years. Moreover, the noted author and [TV personality](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stranger-things-the-official-cookbook) dives deep into the inner workings of the hunt, how he experienced life eating wild game and the ways in which food has evolved. While many people spend their meals consuming [pre-packaged foods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carnivore-bites), Rinella details the benefits of [eating locally, naturally](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beef-bitlong) and for a better overall life. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.9/10 - Popularity: 3% | Activity: 15% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Hunting Adventures:** Capturing the essence of hunting adventures can help create experiential tourism opportunities. - **Wild Game Consumption:** Promoting wild game consumption can push the trend towards sustainable meat options and reduce carbon footprint. - **Locally Sourced Food:** Promoting locally sourced food can create a market for small-scale farmers and boost the regional economy. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Tourism:** Creating experiential tourism opportunities centered around hunting can drive local economies and boost tourism revenue. - **Food:** Promoting wild game consumption can create opportunities for food entrepreneurs to offer sustainable and healthy food options. - **Agriculture:** Promoting locally sourced food can create a market for small-scale farmers and encourage sustainable agriculture practices. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Free-Roaming Animal Meats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knepp-wild-range-meat.md) - [Culinary Comedian Cookbooks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foodheim-a-culinary-adventure.md) - [Nutritious Organ Meat Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ancestral-beef-blend-meat-sticks.md) - [Steak-Like Jerky Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carnal-umami-cut-beef-jerky.md) - [Meat-Themed Brand Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jack-links-meat-retreat.md) - [Carnivore Diet Trackers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carnivore-diet.md) - [Horror Film-Inspired Cookbooks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/death-for-dinner-cookbook.md) - [Edible Meat Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meat-menu.md) - [Flavorful Sausage Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grass-fed-venison.md)
