Yeah. Like roo it has to be prepared and cooked right, but it's not bad at all. It's all in the preparation.
On the other hand, as a caucasian Aussie brought up on dairy I found Camel milk absolutely vile. I'm sure tastes vary however and if it was the only fluid going you'd take it.
I did try it a few times in the time I lived in the Middle East just in case I happened to have a bad batch the last time, but it never got better.

This seemed somewhat definitive from a 'live animal export perspective' - https://www.mla.com.au/research-and-...t-analysis/789
" On balance, modest economic returns and substantial risks limit the attractiveness of investment in Australian live camel exports."

Don't export. Market locally, like already happens with roo meat.
