well given the option of a sore and bloody mouth when you eat the little food you could gnaw and swallow, you may change your ideas, I realize it's a stomach turning idea but when it is that or starve slowly to death you do what you have to.

I think he's quite clever. Some (many) of the locals can't afford dental work, even through the state they have to pay something like R2500 for a set of dentures and average monthly wage is less than half that. The guy had quite a bit of interest at his stall, but the potential customers all disappeared like smoke win I pulled out the camera! LOL I asked him where he got them from and after ducking and diving for a minute he said people bring it to him. DH thinks he's probably got a contact at a funeral home, but either way, YUCK!
