South Africans like their meat. I mean really like their meat! They eat domestic meats like beef and pork as well as a huge variety of wild game. When I asked our guide why such a plethora of meat he said, “look at nature, the lion and the leopard are carnivores and they are lean and muscular… while the Hippo, Elephant, Rhino and Cape Bull are vegetarian and they are big and fat. He concluded with …need I say more”.

I thought, mmm since I'm a meat eater, I guess I must be the exception to the rule.
Now if I could just think of a good rationale for eating all their unbelievable desserts!
