We didn't have pigs, but cattle, goats and chickens. (We didn't eat the goats). So, I find it funny that you have to tread softly to avoid offense. As for the customer service, Argentines often seem to have the motto: The customer is always wrong. A friend of ours was trying to buy some meat one day, and the carneceria wouldn't sell her what she wanted, because he didn't like the way she said she wanted to cook it!<br />A funny thing happened in Mexico. We sent the kids (aged 12 & 9 and with minimal Spanish) down to the tiny nearby store for some bread or something. They had a 100 peso bill, and came back with change for a 10. We told a friend about it, and he went down and explained the problem. Turned out the storekeeper didn't see too well, and just misread the bill.<br />Enjoying your blog - OzOz Rineholdnoreply@blogger.com
