Meat 2 vs Body 0

Meat, there is no escaping it in Mongolia and there is no mistaking where it comes from. There is no black polystyrene containers and glad wrap. The local meat market is a room where one wishes for gumboots amongst the counters of butchers. There is a yak, beef, mutton and horse sections. No part of any animal is neglected. But sheep's tails and ribs are considered the best bits. Truly holistic trade. You will notice no lamb. It is not considered favoursome enough- wait till it's mutton, apparently that is the tooth-pick-requiring business. The go is to drift around the counters until you find a piece of meat that takes your fancy and order. I just pick my favourite butcher, difficult as they are all pretty delightful. Must admit vegetarian days have increased dramatically.
