Fat on the right, meat on the left.

Almost 50/50 on this particular cow. This cut usually has less fat.

English is such a peculiar language.

A handmade butcher knife. It may be small but it is sharp as hell.

Yes. It came off after being soaked in water for about an hour. As for the meat, it's already cooked and I'm about to eat it. As for the fat, the tortilla was already flipped and about to be finished.

You need sharpness and precision to remove the fat. The large knife was used to remove the meat from the animal's back. You sure know nothing about argentinian butchery.

English is such a peculiar language.

It's pretty interesting actually.
Cow, Pig, Sheep, Chicken are all Anglo-Saxon (Old English) derived words.
However, after England was conquered in 1066 by the Normans, we gained a lot of 'Old French' words.

There was also a shift in power/class systems, and for the most part Normans were on top (Lords, nobles, etc.) and Anglo-Saxons were on the bottom (peasantry, farmers, etc.).
As a result it would be the Saxons who were farming all the meat, which is expensive, and the Normans would be eating it.

When the animal was alive it was around Anglo-Saxons and had their name for the animal.
When the animal was dead it was on a Normans table and had their name for the animal.

Hence we have livestock like;
Cow, Sheep, Pig and Chicken.
And we have meat like;
Beef, Mutton, Pork and Poultry.
