Ha ha, but no - East African Masai have a staple diet of congealed cow's blood (it turns into a horrible jelly like scabby substance). I used to live there and have seen them eat that S***, and they grow pretty damn big and strong on it.

I have thtought through my baby-killing plans very carefully, don't you worry about that!
No wander they all have such skanky teeth!

I remember seeing the Masai on a Ray Mears bushcraft dvd. He portrayed them as this truly ancient tribespeople , living in house made of dried dung, hunting the traditional way with hand made bow and arrow and using their traditional tracking skills to catch their prey. He delighted in telling how nearly all of the women of the village had given birth inside a giant tree, where they stay for several days after the birth until the umbilical cord has disolved off.

The illusion was only shattered when I noticed that his Masai guide was wearing a rather expensive looking digital watch.

Personally I think their whole 'lifestyle' is a way of making fun of the tourists.

I reckon that just over the first hill is a nice commerical, broadband enabled little town where they all actually live, apart from when fools like Ray Mears or some western journalist announces they are coming for a visit.......
