Waste not, want not

Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia
Sunday, May 9, 2010

Sunday again and it's off to Mercury Market to buy fresh meat and vegetables. Meat prices have shot up (by Mongolian standards) in recent weeks due to a variety of factors including the spectacular number of animal deaths caused by the zud.

Casting an eye around the market I happened upon these, just next to a large box of pigs' feet. Waste not, want not.
