MMMmm… Baby Camel Burgers!

BT in Saudi Arabia posted a blog about the new popular dish in Saudi- Burgers made from ground-up baby camels. She rightfully questions the whereabouts of PETA.

From ArabianBusiness.com here:

A fast food restaurant in Saudi Arabia is offering baby camel burgers as the latest way for the camel-crazed country to enjoy one of their favourite delicacies.

Specialities such as camel liver have long been on the menu of upmarket restaurants in the Gulf Arab state, but the experiment with baby camel burgers has met with enthusiasm in a country where the camel is a symbol of nomadic traditions.

The Arabic language famously has over 40 terms for different breeds, ages and genders of camel.

As BT points out in her post, ” No such thing as PETA in this part of the world. And, besides, the slaughtering of baby camels would never fit in with their political agenda.” And she is right. Besides if those skinny lesbian vegans tried to form a protest in Saudi, the vice police would beat them with sticks. Hmmm, that might be worth seeing.

Also, having 40 words for something is a badge of cultural maturity? I have 45 words for Retard, which is how I feel about a bunch of people who would rather eat baby camels than bacon. Who knew I was so culturally mature?
