Fresh Meat!
I recently made a trip to a local market to purchase and eat durian for the first time. While I was there, I was able to capture some photos of butchers of the market.

I love this mixture of personalities, ages, and genders! They were all working in the same market and all selling meat. For those of you who are grossed out by the fact that the meat is sitting out in the open all day – don’t be. That meat is usually sold out everyday as the locals buy their meat needs daily – so it’s always fresh unlike out Western grocery store chains! So – before you judge, consider that this way to sell meat may be even better!
