Zimbabwean man sells donkey meat as beef
By Tom Johnston on 8/7/2007 for Meatingplace.com
A Zimbabwean man sold donkey meat to residents suffering from the country's food shortages, claiming it was beef, according to local media reports.
The unidentified man reportedly sold his wares out of a basket while walking the streets of an impoverished village near the country's border with South Africa.
"This man had an ear of a cow, which he was using to hoodwink residents into believing that it was beef he was selling," a buyer was quoted as saying. "Initially, I had my own reservations, as the meat did not look like beef until he showed me the ear of a cow."
The woman told reporters a neighbor told her that the meat wasn't beef, and the vendor ran off after residents confronted him.
