We definitely have lamb leg on the BBQ for Easter dinner. Rosemary and garlic rubbed..very good. A few times a year..and maybe a rack of lamb at times.
I suspect that lamb and cheese is a about double the price in the UK. So it is a shoplifting target for people who earn a lot less on the average.
The farmers in the EU can’t even slaughter one of their own heard to eat themselves..so the price is virtually controlled at high levels and then the farmers get aid. All controlled by overpaid bureaucrats in Belgium. Can’t have a free market in the EU. The fruits of socialism..wonderful.

UK: Meat prices have soared by 6.1 per cent on average over the past year: http://theunhivedmind.com/wordpress/?p=29470

....if we are to believe the prognosticators....our food/meat prices will be going up next year too.
