Someone's been pulling your leg- real mincemeat is made with meat. The
stuff they call mincemeat that is nothing but raisins and figs and stuff
is an interesting filling, but it isn't mincemeat. The best mincemeat is
made with venison... and it has brandy...

Ooh... are the holidays nearly here already?
