Veal bones descriptions say bones are which?

• A. Large, hard, and white
• B. Long, curved, and yellow
• C. Thick, heavy, and dark
• D. Small, soft, and quite red

Answer: (D)

Veal bones come from very young calves, so their skeletons are still developing and not fully ossified. That means the bones are small and soft, and the bone marrow is red, giving the bones a quite red appearance. As animals mature, bones become larger and harder and marrow shifts toward yellow fat, so adult cattle have larger, harder, white bones.
