The Cat's Meow

This is a photo that I took in the town of Caruaru, 135km inland from Recife. Caruaru is reputed to have the biggest outdoor market in Northeastern Brazil / Brazil / Latin America, depending on your sources. In any case, the market is undoubtedly ginormous [actually a word according to Webster's New Millenium Dictionary of English] and has everything that you could possibly think of, including the kitchen sink. In fact, I think that I saw several kitchen sinks for sale! From what I could see, the market sold produce; nuts, beans and pulses; all different kinds of meats and fish; bulk cooking products; clothing as far as the eye could see; household goods; appliances; farm implements; tools, equipment and machinery; some furniture; arts and crafts; and of course ... bulk cat food. And now we know. The mystery of which cat food cats like best has finally been solved! Clearly, this little fellow, who had his pick of the selection, chose to feast himself on Whiskas! Don't tell Felix though, he is an Iams kitty all the way!
