Whatever happened to mutton?

Got some in the freezer; buy it from the farmers' market. Prime Welsh
mutton, and very tasty too the way Rebecca's tried cooking it so far.

It's the name, that's the problem - lovely meat to eat.

I've never thought the name a problem; it being the Norman-French for
'sheep' indicates that the Norman nobs were pretty keen on it and wouldn't
let the plebs get in first. Lovely stuff, mutton.
