I've seen this product in TJ's cooler. What about you? Did you
like it? Would you buy it again?

The domestic lamb in the US has a nicer fresh taste, which we prefer even
though the lambs are larger. The lamb at TJ's is from either Australia or
New Zealand. Everything is slightly smaller. Even though the lamb is
smaller, it has a "gamey" taste, which isn't necessarily bad, but just
different from USA lamb. The boneless TJ leg of lamb we definitely wouldn't
buy again. It tastes and chews like someone tied everything together.
