I have seen on several other sites that the next immunity challenge will be the traditional "eat something creepy".
The word is this week they will have to drink warm cow's blood. Ewwwwwwww!!
OK who will not be able to do this?

I am thinking that I remember that warm cow's blood is a staple in the Masai diet. I can barely get MILK out of a cow; I know I'd run into trouble trying to bleed one!!

I hate that part of the show, I am gagging just thinking about it.

I'm a little worried about where the blood comes from... the pig killing in S2 was bad enough, lets hope they don't show us that part.
I know they aren't aloud to kill African wildlife, but what about cows?

In the preview for the next episode Tom is shown beginning to drink the blood. Lindsey looks stunned. Ethan is a vegetarian (surpising, since he's a professional athlete), so it will be interesting to see what he does.

I have read about the Masai coming of age ceremony where the young men drink cattle blood. They cut the cow in the neck & drain some blood without killing the animal. Cattle are the most precious commodity the Masai posess.
I'm guessing that Frank will not only drink it, but ask for seconds....Lindsay many have a little trouble with this one...

I wouldn't do it. I'd be afraid of contracting mad cow disease or some other horrible disease.

No way could I do it, diseases not withstanding.

Maybe they are getting some leftover blood from nearby Masi who recently had a ceremony?

One could only hope....

Here is a grand site to learn a little about the Masai. www.wednet.edu/curriculum/soc_studies/kenya/masai.html
I must say their diet does not particularly appeal to me. I'm a veggie type of gal myself.

Kep, nope, I read in some magazine this week (either Us or EW) that they lead in a live cow and stick it and bleed it. Does not kill the cow. Then they line up to drink.
