That is cool!
What is "forcemeat"?
The eggs and meatballs sounds weird.
Lamb chops with mint suace was big with our dad.

I used to cook those in my other house and my dog would not enter the kitchen when they were broiling!

Thayne was a big lamb eater...

Once he made burgers from ground lamb. When he told me what it was I thought he said "hamburgers" and dug right in. EWWWW! I thought they were awful even after putting ketchup on them-- a condiment I only use out of desperation!

Mincemeat is made from dried fruits, nuts, brandy and beef suet. It is used as a dessert filling in pies and tarts. It tastes dreadful.

That, my dear is the origin of (the translated) "let them eat cake".

That's what I thought!
I should have trusted my instincts.
Instead I tried to look up key words in my high school French English dictionary.
