Of the following meats*:
1. Beef
2. Lamb
3. Pork (including bacon and other cured varieties)
Which one would you be able to live without?
*Chicken and turkey aren't included because they are silly meats --- the vegetables of the meat world as the boyfriend puts it.

it's definitely my favourite, but it's really hard to get (and expensive) in Holland, and the other two are more important as basic meats.

I suspect that you're sadly mistaken.
Lamb is a delicious meat, althought somewhat hard to digest (hence, it is often served with mint) - plays merry hell with my digestion system, since I all but gave up meat eating.

was a chicken kebab, when I was in Munich. It was actually rather nice.
Only time I bought a "lamb" kebab, I was 18 and pissed out of my skull. Got the full works, then carried it home and fed it to the dog. Only evidence in the morning, was a lovely sauce stain on my favourite coat. :¬( Had "meat'n'chips" a couple of times since, but gave it up once I'd ordered it sober - pretty minging!

Lovely. The whole, pickled ones that you can buy, are very nice too (delicacy of northern Spain, I believe).
Maybe you should nip in to the takeaway before you get pissed, and ask them to only make you an 8" when you come back later in the evening? Afterall, it's in their interests for you not to suffer some sort of anal prolapse.

I don't like it any less than the other two, but I do eat less of it.

I'd like to agree with him (there's no way I could slaughter and butcher my own pig - I can't even gut a fish without wanting to throw up), but my weak willpower means that I can't - animals just taste too damned nice! So, assuaging my guilt in the middle class way, I kid myself that organically reared animals don't mind being killed for my benefit.

And it makes it taste rather lully. But green olives don't really have the same effect, and sun-dried tomatoes are always great.
