British cuisine part II

Okay, call me naive, but what part of the British diet is this?

Is this a Scottish or Welsh thing? What am I missing?

I heard the chimps being sold as meat were used in medical testing. Who knows what test chemicals people are now ingesting.

Well, ostrich and bison meat is available in the states. What's wrong with a chimp leg smoothered in BBQ sauce?

How dare you judge other cultures!

I imagine the meat sells to people who come from places where chimpanzees live naturally. That or Asians. In any case, I imagine it makes you more virile, or at least that;s their take on it.

A buddy of mine in Asia works on stopping "exotic" meat sales (and other parts), invariably used as a folk remedy in place of what would actually work for them, Viagra (in asia it might also make them "big like snake," a pitch probably not needed in Africa).

Bushmeat at more than £20 per kilo

Too rich for my taste....I'll continue to gamble that the meat they put in my curries is fit for human consumption

those are commercially grown. I work for a company who has it's own bison herd, we manage and sell from our own stocks, not from animals in the wild.

So, does it come in curry flavour? I know you fancy curry.

Well, you would read an article from the Daily Mail.....

Jimbuna · 03-02-11, 07:26 AM

Often referred to as the Daily 'Fail'

Fish and chimps?

Twas in the article don't blame me.

yay! lets hear it for the wholesome (and tasty) benefits of immigration, diversity, culture and tradition! You can take the man out of africa, but you can't take africa out of the man.

Ok I'm taking the piss, but there's only one group of society here doing that kind of thing, namely the most recent denizens of our fair and verdant land.
In a vaguely related note... with the spate of eastern european economic migration, many animals protected under british law were being poached for the dinner table, geese, swans, taking fish using large nets, without a license.

Daily Fail aside, 'bushmeat' is not something we should have any sympathy with here.
