I don't know how I would handle that EB,, a bit confrontational to say the least! I just can't stand the smell or taste of lamb and once got into a blue with a guy on a public bbq when he threw on his lamb cutlets next to my fillet steak, aaaargh!

Cookie, As a kid I used to love Lamb, nothing better than gnawing your way through a lamb chop or finding the left overs of a Sunday roast in your school lunch in a sandwich. However you never think about where the meat comes from when you are a kid and as I got older the thought of chowing down on some baby animal carcass put me off.
Yeah I'm a hypocrite as I still love my Beef, chicken, fish etc but I can't come at Lamb, Veal and Pork where it's baby animals on the menu. I'm not manic about it and in some family/friend meal situations I will eat a small portion to be hospitable but will avoid those meats where I can.
I don't judge others though and people have different customs, value sets, etc .
Get what you mean with the taste though, when you haven't eaten it for a while it does have a sickly gamey taste/smell to it even when cooking...
My preferred meat is a Scotch Fillet well cooked....not raw and still kicking on the plate like you get at fancy eateries...
