Bugger, I haven’t had camel milk. Although once when I was a bit drunk I had a camel toe. Ew, sorry – that’s low even for me. Well, in both senses of the word, ch-ching! Phew saved the crassness with some dubious wordplay there.

Cica, I have many a tale to tell, I’ve been in Africa; that continent is hard to beat when it comes to weird foodstuffs. Although void of dodgy food, you’re in luck as I do have an animal story to tell.

There was a vineyard in the Western Cape of South Africa which we heard had goats in a tower, both of which provided cheese which was served with the wine. This I had to see. When I got there, sure enough there were two goats kidding around up a big two-storey wooden tower, which had a spiral walkway all the way to the top. On each floor there was an entrance to the tower’s interior. So seeing as there didn’t seem to be any barriers, I decided to get involved. I climbed up the walkway and went in the first doorway. The goats, a floor above, suddenly ran down. I wondered why and came out. To my surprise a llama had chased them off. A llama. A f*cking llama. Where the hell did he come from? He didn’t seem happy I was on the tower and spat at me. Unfazed (this wasn’t a first) I tried to get down the walkway but llama started coming up, I panicked and jumped off the tower. The llama gave chase. Now on level ground I realised it was much bigger than I thought. I ran to a wall that looked llama-proof and vaulted it. I landed with a splash in some scrap metal water feature and realised I was in the restaurant. I stepped out, checked the llama hadn’t joined me, and sat down with my friends to have some cheese and wine.

More anon.

Anything less that a story about participating in illegal camel races through the barren wastes of Sheffield on way to a medical conference, ending in a feast of camel-shakes and camel-foot soup is sure to be a disappointment.

He’s set the bar high, yo.

not next…already here and here

Does anybody know if Jaisalmeri camels are the ones used in camel races in the Middle East????The ones with really young boys as jockeys???

In laddakh bactrian camel is also found, I dont think its the same spiecies as the regular camel. Beutiful animals. Too bad they are about to be abused.

What’s next? Camel “veal”?

No. Thank. You.

I’ve tried camel’s milk though…ehhh not for me. I also don’t like goat’s milk

I’ve also had milk straight from a cow’s teat

it’s gross

but then, I, like Yo mom, hate milk.

Why were they fortified with bananas? I am surprised that you didn’t mention the hallucinogenic sleeping pills.

Disclaimer: I did not watch Basic Instinct 2. Heck..I didn’t even watch 1.

Question for you all….does camel milk curdle? And has anyone seen a camel being milked?
