that's not salad

saladwithsteve: "Last night I ate curried goat for dinner."


You know, I was thinking why eating goat sounded weird (besides it's, ya know, disgusting), and I think it's because they call cows "beef" and pig "pork" so you don't have to say you're eating cow or eating pig. There should be a name for goat meat (there probably is). Or maybe there shouldn't.


And, I know, chicken doesn't follow this rule. But I think that's because chickens aren't so big.


Addendum: Using the Google FAQ trick, I learned it's called "chevron." That doesn't sound too much tastier than goat. (Oh wait, it's chevon.)
