A week or so before Christmas, our apartment complex had a holiday party. Two of the guys sponsored a goat roast. Part of the package was bringing in a live goat and the butchers to slaughter it.
Gideon, the gardener for our complex, enjoyed roasting the goat's head. I didn't stay around long enough to see if he ate it.
In north America, many kids think meat comes in plastic-wrapped packages, from start to finish. Here, most kids outside of the city have never seen the plastic-wrapped variety.

I must admit, I have never been to a goat roast. I didn't even know you COULD roast a goat. And, that picture of the goats head seems a bit gruesome :0
I prefer plastic-wrapped meat. LOL!
I need to buy a goat head for the same purpose. After relishing many a goat head in many trips to Ukambani, I need to do one for myself in the house. Any ideas?
