We're all well aware that the class division of languages used in England in the early second millenium is the reason that meat words like beef and mutton came from French while the names for the animals themselves are Germanic. Of course.

But wait—what's the difference between mutton and lamb? Aside, of course, from lamb curiously being a word of Germanic origin. I've never eaten mutton, but I do love me a lamb gyro.

Lamb is exactly what it says on the tin: baby sheep. That veal episode of South Park didn't mention that, did it? ... Did it?
