This camel head hanging from a wall in the food section of the medina (old city) in Fes, Morocco caught my eye. How could it not? I don’t eat camel. In fact, I would never eat camel. Yet right across the way is the Cafe Clock which serves camel burgers (and, fortunately for me, other yummy things).
For that matter, where I live in NY our meat bears little resemblance to actual animals. Here one can watch as an animal is cut up or choose a live chicken to be slaughtered.
It occurs to me that dinner is exactly the same around the world and also completely different.
