I used to believe that joints of beef were cylindrical, not realising that they were rolled. When my mother asked me how I thought they got that shape of meat out of a cow I said 'with a hole-puncher'. I then had a dream about cows on a conveyor belt with these massive hole-punchers rising and falling.
