Taking a healthy break while traveling through Mityana
The meat dealers spring after every passing vehicle with the speed of Usain Bolt at his best
Dare not miss a health break if leaving or going to Kampala City via Mityana.

While passing Mityana, even the deaf or blind, cannot miss the meat. The dealers spring after every passing vehicle with the speed of Usain Bolt at his best. Before passengers make up their minds, the pieces are shoved under their noses.
"Take it ssebo," jokes one dealer, "you will pay when coming back from the village after Christmas!"
