Picking the meat of your choice, by hanging it up they can’t hide a piece of fat or inferior grade meat from the buyer. The general practice is to point to the desired item and they will pull it off from the rack for you to examine. It is such a stark contrast compared against the supermarkets in Canada where meat is prepackaged and are wrapped in Styrofoam packages.

“You gonna buy it or not?!”; “Very good fish, cheap cheap!”
