you know you live in mongolia when...
....the version of The Little Red Riding Hood that gets read to the kindergartners includes the detail of Little Red Riding Hood bringing Mongolian хуушууp to her grandmother.
Maybe that's why the wolf ate her grandmother? I don't know many wolves that wouldn't want to eat fried meat pockets that are also one of Mongolia's national food.
(side note: I'm actually quite impressed that such a cultural adaptation was made- props to whatever random publisher translated the book we have in our classroom)
