If you know me, then you know that I love meat. I am always craving something with meat whether that is in a burger or a salad. Since coming to Cambodia, I have craved less and less meat and considering turning vegetarian. Why? Every so often I see things that make me want to change what I eat. For instance, almost every week a van passes our street with live pigs strapped to a board hanging out the back. Whenever the truck goes over a bump, the pigs squeal and wiggle. Live animals strapped to motos are not exclusive to pigs in fact anything deemed edible can be found strapped alive to a moto.
The market is another reason why vegetarianism is beginning to appeal to me. Yesterday, Neth took Tessa and I to the market to shop for a special dinner (story to come). Well at this market there was a bunch of fish, blood, heads with bodies, and a bunch of noses without faces. Mix the sights with the smell and you have the reason why going vegetarian becomes a more appealing option.
Actually, now that I think about it...going vegetarian is not an option. I like meat too much. I will just let someone else pick it up. Problem solved.
