Because there's so much of it, Orphy. To prevent us from getting bored by this surfeit of meat (refrigerators and freezers being relatively new inventions), our mothers have always had hundreds of traditional handed-down recipes, most of which we only see (or rather, taste) shortly after Eid-ul-Azha. So, in this case, variety literally is the spice of life.

A useful criterion to keep in mind Orphy, when deciding upon the starter wife.
