#1 I hope camel burgers take off. There are a million of the buggers wandering around the Western Australian outback.

BTW they are very large animals. A full grown camel must be 20 foot high. A lot of burgers.

#2 ..... but next came a delightful paté of smoked camel with a heart of foie gras.

I think I'll pass.

#3 What's next, horsemeat hamburgers? Donkey ragout? They're beasts of burden, of course they're gonna be tough. And probably not all that tasty.

#4 Many have said they prefer it to normal burgers, and a lot of people can hardly taste the difference

The very definition of a trendy food.

#5 I don't know, but this seems uncomfortably close to cannibalism.

#6 Everyone's bored of beef and chicken
