MEAT
We get pork, ham or bacon from a pig, beef from a cow and veal from a calf. Mutton comes from a sheep, but we get lamb from a lamb. We often call beef, mutton and lamb red meat. Pale-coloured meat, such as chicken, is called white meat. We can fry, grill, roast or stew meat. We carve a joint of meat. Meat can be described as tough or tender, lean or fatty. Uncooked meat is raw. You buy meat at the butcher's. A person who does not eat meat is a vegetarian.
