ROAST BEEF OF OLD U.S.A
AMERICANS EAT MORE THAN ENGLISH Charlie Brown, master carver at Simpson’s in the Strand, London, has celebrated the completion of 50 years’ service, during which time it is estimated he has carved 200,000 saddles of mutton alone. Englishmen, says Charge, eat more mutton than beef. Americans, by comparison, eat more roast beef than Englishmen. “Nowadays men do not eat as much as they did half a century ago, but women eat more and are less fastidious. Speaking generally, though, I think people take less interest in their meals than did diners in the old days.” Once Charlie accompanied a sirloin of beef to Hoghton Tower, Lancashire, and carved it before the King and Queen.
