Refleksi : Kalau hutan dibabat dan dijadikan padang tandus atau padang pasir 
bisa dibikin buat peternakan besar-besaran untuk unta, daging unta bisa diexpor 
atau dikonsumsi dalam negeri guna mengatasi kekurangan gizi yang tak kunjung

Riyadh: Delicate to taste and low in fat 'Hashi' Baby Camel burgers is the new 
craze among fast food lovers in Saudi Arabia. 

A fast food restaurant is offering baby camel burgers as the latest way for the 
camel-crazed country to enjoy one of their favourite delicacies. 

"The idea...was to invent something new. It is about the love of Saudi people 
for camel meat," said Saleh Quwaisi, one of the owners of the Local Hashi Meals 
restaurant in the capital Riyadh which plans to open a second branch soon and 
considers to expand further.

The experiment with baby camel burgers has met with enthusiasm in a country 
where the camel is a symbol of nomadic traditions. 
 
Walid Sanchez, managing director of sufraiti.com, a popular Saudi online dining 
directory, sees a huge market for camel burgers as Saudis like to try out new 
menus and appreciate the quality of locally made meat.

"People like camel meat but no one experimented with camel burgers before...I 
think it will be a popular thing, it will definitely take off," said Sanchez.

Customers visiting the packed restaurant in Riyadh on a weekend night agreed.

"I'm frankly trying it for the first time and I really like it," said Mohammad 
Naghi. "It doesn't have much fat, it's light and has a delicate taste," he said 
as he chewed away

Riyadh, which is home to one of the biggest camel markets on the Arabian 
peninsula, regularly hosts camel races, and every year in various places across 
the kingdom there are pageants - where a winner could claim hundreds of 
thousands of dollars.
