I was going to say...The really ugly story would have been told if she described how they make Dominican Salami.
I have had some great tasting salami in the DR and others that I would be hard pressed to feed to my dog. The typical DR breakfast includes all the food groups. I think it is mostly gringos that eat this on a regular basis. This is certainly not a healthy or low calorie meal.
Nobody in my wife's immediate family eat either salami or pork, even at Christmas. It is either chicken or beef for them. I have seen street dogs refuse to eat salami and eat a pamper instead that is how terrible in can be. One of our teacher recently cut a salami open and found dead bugs in it...!
I have had some local breakfast type sausage that tasted and smelled heavenly. I by ham and cheese for the school twice a week, usually about 12 lbs and I see the salami being bought by the thousands. It is cheap.
Does anyone know where lamb is sold. Goat if OK, but lamb chops. MMMMMM
Hard to find real ham ( or any decent cold cuts ) here.
"Real" ham is the price of caviar in the supermarkets.
