Here a clay model of a Buddha, it will be realized in granite and be shipped to Texas for a Vietnamese shrine or temple.
There are lots of things to eat that we wouldn't think of in North America. Glad I have a meat industry background and realize that we throw a lot of stuff away that is good to eat and good for you. This is in a fast food restaurant
