Where's the Beef?

Many remember the ad campaign for Wendy's (a fast food burger joint).  An old lady gets her hamburger from another fast food chain, opens it up and sees the minuscule patty, and then in outrage shouts "Where's the Beef!?"  I found it today, at my cookery school, with two fabulous butchers showing us where various cuts of meat come from on lamb, pig and cow carcasses.  It. was. Awesome... except for the minor detail that cuts of meat and often the names of said cuts tend to be region specific, so I will return knowing a bit about UK cuts, and will still need to brush up on the U.S. specifics.  Either way, we all left salivating for bacon. At least I did, even though bacon always makes me thirsty... for more bacon!
