mmm, acariciando el parque zoológico

the dreaded leche de cabra strikes again - dulce de leche de cabra, that is.

I would like to retract anything I said about caramel made from goat milk not being bad - my work friend brought in some more Mexican candies and I knew that resistance would be futile, so I grabbed a caramel and sat it on my desk. Jonesing for a mid-morning snack, I unwrapped it and smelled it, it smelled fine, so I took a little nibble and it tasted fine... at first... then it started to taste like goat ass with a hint of sweetness, like the caramel extrusion machine was fashioned from an old goat butt and not properly rinsed out... perhaps this is how goat's milk is supposed to be healthy, it makes one not want to eat, it makes one want to graze in a field in order to rid one's mouth of the essence of livestock (seriously, my mouth tastes like I gargled with a petting zoo) - I need to go find some gum... or hot pizza cheese (made from COWS) to burn the taste out, blisters I can live with, goat breath, not so much
