Zebra meat pizza

Burnley Citizen: AN East Lancashire, UK, takeaway has become the first in the country to sell zebra pizzas.

Friends of the Earth said many animal lovers would be ‘appalled’ at the sale.

But campaigners at the Worldwide Fund for Nature said that as long as the meat was sourced from responsible farms then they have no concerns.

Yummy Yummy Italia, in Parker Lane, Burnley, said that its range of zebra, buffalo, venison, kangaroo and even crocodile pizzas have been a big hit with customers since going on sale earlier this year.

The exotic foods are sourced from ‘alternative meats’ supplier Kezie, based in Berwickshire, which pledged that the ingredients are from responsible farms.

Arash Fard, 33, the owner of the business, said the idea for the unique pizza toppings came after a trip to London, where he saw frogs legs used on pizzas.

He developed the menu with his Italian girlfriend Veronica.

Mr Fard said: “When I came back I began to research the idea because I wanted to sell frogs legs pizzas but I soon found a better idea.

“I thought it would be something really different. I’ve had a few goes and tried a few different recipes but it is perfect now >>>

Gooshte khar all right.  I was going to suggest a pizza to be served to Zebras with ground "Arash Fard" as the topping, but then I realized that, unfortunately, Zebras were herbivores.  That's just too bad!

As a vegan myself, I have to tell you that the best pizza I have EVER had was a salad pizza....and I mean cold salad with Italian dressing on top of a warm pizza with light marinara sauce.  yummmm!

After Ghormeh Sabzi pizza, say hello to striped donkey meat on your pie.

I rather stick with Pizza of the Gods = Artichoke hearts, Olives, protobello Mushrooms, Spinach,  sun dried tomatoes, fresh basil, and young[game] hen's breast meat.

Large thin crust extra crispy please.

There was (maybe still is) a famous restaurant in the Keys Road, with a French chief. They are famous for their soup of Turtle!

We went there in 1991, the whole decoration is around the Turtle! I couldn't touch the soup, but my dear husband found it delicious!

I did not know that zebra meat is for human consumption. I thought zebras are protected animals 'cause they are so beautiful! I ate a buffalo burger outside Zion National Park a couple of years ago. The buffalo meat is leaner than beef. It tasted great! I also ate frog meat before when I was in Honolulu. The couple told me that they bought one pound of frog meat for $16. The frog meat was more tender than chicken meat. I also ate alligator meat one time, which I bought from Ralphs' Super Market's frozen section. I cooked it in the oven, it tasted OK!

 When I have chance, I will try the kangaroo and venison meat for fun!

I don't know about you guys but combining such concept as "alternative meat" with a supplier named "kezie" under the banner of Responsible farms...or farming topped off with an iranian owner... just sends chills down in my spine....
