Raw meat

by emily on April 9, 2009

This is one of the big differences in grocery stores here. The meat just sits out and everyone paws through it with their bare hands. This is pretty good – it actually has ice underneath the meat. The meat counters don’t actually have glass in them and aren’t refrigerated. A couple weeks ago, we saw a worker clipping her nails behind the meat counter. She was about half a meter away from the open case, with fingernail clippings flying everywhere.
