observer Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Seems our colonial cousins are being encouraged to eat camel meat to control the camel population! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P J Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Not only the hump but the hop as well.......kangeroos are included in the "to eat" list. Â They are just copying our "celebrities" diets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kateoflymm Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 I've eaten the camel parts that were offered on "celebrity". I cooked them too. Â We were in a supermarket in Rhiyadh and they were on sale in the meat section. Being ever willing to try something new, we bought some. I had no idea how to cook them but opted for slicing and frying, quickly, in olive oil. They were, actually, quite delicious with a cream and wine (non-alcoholic, of course ) sauce - rather like lamb's fries but a bit tougher.

Dizzy Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Yeuch  I saw the hairy based pointed kangaroo parts and also the rounder parts of a similar beast that were on offer on 'celebrity' and there's no way I would eat eather unless they were shaved, cooked in spices, completely disguised and no-one had told me what they were. I can't even eat mussles or the other slimey little things you on offer in the fishmongers or stalls at the seaside  Good on you Kate and you are braver than I am.

Dizzy Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 What about the preperation too Obs  I'm happy to peel a few spuds (of the potato variety ) and veg but shaving testicles and peeling willies no thanks  At which point the two male members of my family start to squirm... might be worth it after all an they can the watch them cook in the slow coker for 8 hours and think of the possibilities when they get on my nerves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kateoflymm Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Oh there was no shaving and peeling when I cooked camels' balls, Dismayed. They were vacuum packed in a polystyrene dish and, to be honest, I didn't know what they were until I asked. I thought they were kidneys.

Dizzy Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 ... My other half and son may read that as meaning that you think they are both Chavs so it might be advisable for you to take care of your 'bits' for a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P J Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 Don't feel sorry for them Rocky, if they had got their fingers(hooves?)out millions of years ago they would be at the top of the food chain eating us. If you don't hold with evolution and prefer the creation approach, if God didn't want us to eat animals why did he make them out of meat?
