Well, I am almost as tweaked, as if being pulled through a &#8216;bunghole&#8217; regarding a Tucson Taqueria (Boca Tacos y Tequila) offering up, on Exotic Taco Wednesday, tacos with Lion meat. Really? Where are all the hipsters who get their collective panties in a bunch over faux gras? Lion meat?<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>At $8.95 per taco the obvious things pop into mind: aren&#8217;t they protected? Are these &#8216;hatchery&#8217; Lions, so to speak? How is a hole in the wall taqueria in Tucson, Arizona able to import Lion meat? From some deranged Saudi prince connection via the Congo and a smuggling route through Nogales? Does the FDA know about this? Bizarre Taco Time is a better weekly special name. And, that is a little spendy as I normally order 4 tacos. <a href="http://blogs.riverfronttimes.com/gutcheck/2011/01/lion_meat_tacos_arizona.php" target="_blank"><span style="color:#00ff00;">River Front Times Gut Check article</span></a><br />
