At the Centralian Gold abattoir outside Alice Springs, business is brisk. Scores of animals are brought in each week to be slaughtered, deboned and packaged into sausages, steaks and mince.
But the largest slabs of meat on the racks are not beef, lamb or even kangaroo, but camel. Garry Dann, who owns the business, describes camel meat as "beautiful, healthy and organic" and says demand for the product is growing every month..................
and there is no "demand" for it here.(roo)
Yeh heard a story on TripleJ about this around 6 months ago. Apparently camel bacon is the go also.
Just having a giggle over the difference between English and Australian culture.
There is just no way that "Road Kill" would be marketable over here.
Need i say more?
