Maasai warriors

A very intersting discussion happened during the second nutrition class in Nairobi. Joy was explaining why meat needs to be cooked well before it is eaten, and how to properly prepare foods for consumption. There were some Maasai men (pictured here) attending, and they asked if it was okay for them to eat the meat raw just after they kill the animal, while they are still in the field.

After this discussion, Joy decided to talk about that in her next class. She found out quickly at that class that the Maasai are really the only people who consume meat in that manor. (Nairobi was the only venue where the Maasai were represented.)
