lamb is delicious

wolf · 10-27-2011, 10:33 AM

Regardless of whether lamb is delicious or just tastes weird still doesn't answer the question of why we eat two different allegorical representations of an avatar on the same holiday ...

I suspect we eat lamb for Easter because Christianity is just a sect of Judaism. Lamb was traditional for passover, so...

Also it's easy to forget in our Whole Foods Market world, but up until recently most people ate whatever they had on hand at the time. Both Easter and Passover occur in the spring.

typical spring time refrain:

"Holy Christ, what are we gonna do with all these fucking lambs?"

Looks like the butcher gave you some mutton instead of lamb. As for mint jelly, eeew.... Do you suffer from halitosis ?

lamb = meat = good

I make meatballs out of ground lamb. They are fantastic.

"These lamb meatballs taste like dirt!"
"Well, the lamb was ground this morning..."

Thanks folks, I'll be here all week.

We cook lamb at least 2 or 3 times a month. But hell, peeling that Jesus dude off is a bitch! Yummy!

You're a funny man, foot. You're also a liar, since we all know you'll still be here long after a week, but you're a damn funny liar.

You used the blood on your lintel for passover, what else can you do with a bloodless lamb but eat it?

Mint Jelly is a necessary lamb condiment over here. Lamb is the one thing Americans don't put ketchup on. And we rarely see mutton.

And we don't have butchers anymore ... or hardly anymore, anyway. There are a couple of private butcher shops near me, but most of our meats are safely encased in plastic wrap on a styrofoam tray in the supermarket.

Who knows how old the lamb is by the time we get it?

I have actually enjoyed lamb-burgers, but haven't seen ground lamb in the market in quite a while.

Try looking for a small slaughterhouse. Like the ones where you'd take a deer for processing. Most of the ones around here work like a neighborhood butcher shop. If they don't have what you're looking for, they can put you in contact with the people who got what you need, you buy the animal from them, have the slaughterhouse butcher it for ya. Some will even sell off what you don't need for ya (say you just want half a lamb, but, you can't find anyone to go halfsies).
