Thanks for the hint, I always mix these two homophones and the bad thing is that you dont get any spelling error for both words exist:doh:

I would get a butcher, and divide the camels up into steaks.

Hmm.. ever had camel? :~

[ednrgc]

Why not shoot one of the men, then give the other 2 time to run away. That way, you get all 18 camels. :wtf::wtf::wtf:

[brianwelsch]

No, but I'm curious now. Have you? I'm guessing people eat them, like they do horses.

No, never. I'm curious now though, what camel tastes like...

[brianwelsch]

I guess I'll be heading to Somalia for taste of some camel's hump[^]. :)

We picked up 20 kilos of Camel meat for a barbeque 60 miles south of Kuwait, at a place called Logistical Base Bastogne. The meat was somewhat tough, but that was mostly because we insisted that the meat be fresh. (No refrigeration in the town) We cooked the **** out of it and that probably made it tougher. It tasted a lot like beef, and the cuts had some gristle as well. Properly seasoned and prepared, (Lots of Bar-B-Que Sauce, etc) Camel is pretty tasty. MRE's can't compare. When visiting foreign lands in the back of a Blackhawk, Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco is a must. Det cord and Parachute cord come in handy as well. smiles...

Ah, nice, a first hand account of camel tasting. Thanks, man. That gets me thinking, though. The company I work for is sending over care packages to Iraq/Afghanistan, do you think Worcestershire and Tabasco, or other spices might be a good addition? [edit] I guess I equated going with Kuwait with being in the military. might not be true. [/edit]

MREs are done in institutional bland to make sure everyone will find them palatable, if not particularly good. From what I've heard any sort of spice/sauce will be a big hit.
