>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 16 16:54:18 2012 No.4583016 It's true, goats are better than cadillacs.

That's funny. The campus dining place at my college offers regional foods every quarter. This term it's jamaican food. One of their items is Jamaican Goat Curry.

Thing is, their regional food is often horrible, and the goat curry is no exception. It looks nothing like that picture.
