Do You Eat Lamb?

Well, certainly, some of you might respond. Why ask a question with such an obvious answer? That is the primary meat of my country. We all eat lamb. You know something? For some of you, that is correct. I ask it because of the American readers and to demonstrate how foods eaten are as much a matter of where you live as any inherent taste in the food. I personally love lamb, but the grocery stores are seeing to it that I can no longer afford to buy lamb. You see, I can't afford a rack of lamb. Chops are too insignificant in portion to make them a realistic part of my menu. Even those chintzy, cheap bits of lamb have gone up in about a year or so from $2.99 per pound to $7.99 per pound (despite the decreasing cost of gasoline and the stores' excuse for why they jacked the price up in the first place. So at times, I almost wish I could live in those lands where really good food is common and reasonably priced. Oh, the same goes for crab, rib roast, and just about every other big-time delicious meat or seafood item.
