Actually, mutton is meat from an adult sheep (as opposed to a lamb)
Oops, Wendy. :p I stand corrected. Mutton is meat from an adult sheep. Check.
me runs to tell her vegitarian, Jewish roommate about the pig's blood on tofu
Oh my goodness, your Jewish friend ate that? *Gasps* It's not pig's blood on tofu. I should have put "tofu" in inverted commas (Seemed like a good way to describe how pig's blood looked like). That brownish red "tofu"? It's pig's blood. Full stop. I don't know what they added to the blood to get it to coagulate, but I do know that the there are no soy beans in this "tofu" at all. Yikes.
If your friend orders it everytime she goes to a Chinese restaurant, she must really like it. Now that she knows what that really is, she can never eat it ever again.
Which brings me to wonder, how does the restaurant translate that "blood red tofu" into English in the menu? Obviously, the translation that the restaurant used did not have the words "pig" nor "blood" in it.
