I chose not to find out whether or not “camelicious” is an accurate description.

        The UAE in general is an interesting experience. I’ve only been once, but my wife has been several times for work.

        The face they want to present has a kind of a Pan-European middlebrow banality (i.e. you want to impress many people who may or may not be all that thoughtful and who definitely speak many different languages and have different cultural touchstones… I am thinking of stuff like the old BASF “nothingburger” ads or the "anthems for Eurovision or Champions League football), combined with an American-like sense of recklessly cheerful enthusiasm for development and economic growth, but wrapped in a cloak of religiosity and always with a barely concealed underpinning of oligarchic authoritarianism.

        To be perfectly honest, it felt a lot like what I expect the evil, but less mustache-twirlingly evil, hope America will be. Still open for business, and even superficially welcoming, but with true wealth only going to those selected by the entrenched power structure, with all others allowed to serve at their pleasure and under a bedrock expectation of not disturbing their preferred social order.

        It comes out as a thick syrup, that would really change urinal designs.

    I’ve had chocolate made with camel milk. It was good, though being positioned as a premium thing it probably would have been just as good with cow milk.
