Interesting what the word mutton means in various places. I always thought it should be sheep but in some places it's also goat (or seemingly, lamb).

I do remember going to Egypt and being asked whether I wanted chicken or meat moussaka. When asked what meat it was, the reply was "meat!" Camel, horse, donkey, beef, goat, mutton, Nile crocodile (nah, tastes like chicken).?

This method is probably better for the consumer than the old way: nitrites.
