    Whenever something is described as a delicacy I see a bunch of rich cunts eating something that doesn’t even taste good, but it’s expensive so they must have it while looking down their noses at people eating a delicious fry up.

      So yeah maybe read the article. Hint: it wasn’t rich people, but indigenous people of Zanzibar. Apparently the dish is a delicacy to them but perhaps culturally significant. Especially if 3 year olds were consuming it (as fucking wild as that is), sounds like a cultural thing. I mean either way people shouldn’t be eating turtles for a lot of reasons, hopefully the Tanzinian government could assist with some education on the subject I dunno.
