The Middle East



Okay so we visited the Middle Eastern culture and this is what we got. Its called Lahme Bi Ajeen. It's made with toasted bread or flour and it's crispy on the edges and soft towards the middle, then cooked meat is added onto it. (I was able to get my hands on 6 of these)


Then we learned a little about the Arabic culture and apparently you cannot eat pork, none whatsoever! However their culture is very unique yet somewhat similar to what we're all used to.

So let's check out some unique traditions. For all the yogurt lovers out there, you guys might want to try out these yogurt. In Middle Eastern culture, yogurt is apparently a dish that you can eat almost every meal. (sauce on the first picture is actually yogurt!).  Apparently the yogurt is usually tasteless












A very cool thing that comes from the Middle East is the beautiful artwork called henna.









They do this for parties, or you can get one done at a shop.
Henna looks very similar to tattoo, but unlike tattoo its temporary and will remove itself over time as your skin sheds. I mean look at   the designs, its very cool
