Arabic Eating

Eating like an arab (what the Arabs called it, not me) means eating with your right hand out of communal bowl of rice mixed with fish or goat. You press the rice and meat in your hand, make a ball of the rice and meat carefully, and then roll the ball up your hand into your fingers. You do this with your right hand, never your left. The left hand is seen as unclean. After you finish one scoop, you dig in again and repeat the process.
