Off topic: crayfish invading Nile fisheries

[VWGal]

Well, this is interesting....course it's not quite Louisiana crawfish when it comes from the Nile delta. But if the Egyptians start to see the commercial value of them as an export, it could be yet another hardship for Louisiana crawfish men.

Nothing off-topic about crawfish here, IMO, VW. Thank You. Quite interesting. Are they sucking the heads yet? And:

'Sponsored by a grant from the United Nations Development Agency, Khalil's workshops include a buffet tasting of crayfish cuisine, including a crayfish boil that could put New Orleans to shame.'

I doubt that one...

"You see in Louisiana they are eating it, cooking it -- there are many festivals for the crayfish. We need to do the same here," Khalil says.

So, who here is in for the 1st annual Cairo Jazz and Heritage Festival?
