Mint Jelly is a necessary lamb condiment over here. Lamb is the one thing Americans don't put ketchup on. And we rarely see mutton.

And we don't have butchers anymore ... or hardly anymore, anyway. There are a couple of private butcher shops near me, but most of our meats are safely encased in plastic wrap on a styrofoam tray in the supermarket.

Who knows how old the lamb is by the time we get it?

I have actually enjoyed lamb-burgers, but haven't seen ground lamb in the market in quite a while.
