When I eat chicken, I call it chicken. Chicken wing; chicken drumsticks etc.

When I eat lamb, I call it lamb. Lamb shank; lamb cutlets.

So why do I not eat pig or cow? I eat pork or beef. Is there a reason for that?

    Supermarkets call all of it lamb.

    But as for consumers, might depend on generation or whereabouts you’re from. I have memories of my mother getting angry “this isn’t lamb it’s hogget” when she tasted it.
