As promised. I´m really sorry.
Moving on...
Sick, huh?
Has anyone seen my mouth? I remember stopping by the market... It´s probably under my bed or something.
I don´t think an explanation is too necessary.Important note: I did not post these pictures because I´m ¨into¨ this kind of gore or nastyness... I posted them so you can see the hygene embraced by this country and some obvious cultural differences. But still, pretty sick huh?

Not something we would ordinarily eat, certainly. But we (Americans) have become used to a certain standard of cleanliness that is not found in all countries. When I was in the UK a few years back ;) , I frequently saw meat displayed on open wooden, planks in front of shops, in full sun, in June. Yum!
We have become accustomed to sanitized, glamorized food (meat). Europeans regularly make use of every bit of an animal; nothing is thrown away. Its not just 3rd world countries that have a different perspective on "markets" and food-sources.
Yes, its a real eye-opener to see where some common, favored food comes from (tamales anyone?), and realize how (mentally & physically) sanitized and isolated we have become.
I can't believe you're into this nastiness.
HAHAHAHA did you ever find your mouth? I don't think I can be friends with you otherwise. So maybe just borrow one from that market if it doesn't turn up. I would definitely love to have a friend with a cow mouth. I'd bring you around to all the parties, "This is my friend, Phil. [In an obnoxiously loud whisper, pretending to but not really preventing Phil from hearing it] CHECK OUT HIS MOUTH!" I might also tell people that you're a mutant or a descendant of a mythological creature. We'll play around, see which story we (by that I mean I) like the best.
