Yesterday I tried something I have never done before.  I made a pork cutlet.  On the package it said it was MECHANICALLY TENDERIZED.  In either case, it looked like some kind of round piece of ground meat.  I actually had to go on the Internet to find out how to cook it.  After intense investigation, I decided to fry it.  I was not about to go through the extensive preparations of breading it.  I've done that in the past with various forms of meat and chicken.  All that did was create a mess.  So I went and fried it.  Upon completion, I have discovered it is nothing but a pork chop in disguise.  I certainly would have known how to cook that.  In either case, I have one more to do.  Most likely today.  Fortunately it has turned out acceptable and so there is not a lot of trauma.
