Is mince meat from sheep?
In countries where mincemeat refers to minced or ground meat,
mince meat is made from most meat animals - beef, lamb, chicken,
turkey, pork mince, normally the mince you buy at the supermarket
is beef mince unless it is labelled otherwise.
However in many countries (Australia,Brittany, Canada, northern
Europe, Ireland, the UK and the United States) mincemeat is a
mixture of chopped dried fruit, distilled spirits and spices, with
occassionaly a admixture of beef suet, beef, or venison if
vegetable shortening is not used..
