A cutlet to me is a very thin cut, almost a scaloppini, breaded and
fried. It was always veal growing up. Mom would buy small packs of veal
as she saw them, freeze them until she had enough to make a meal for the
7 of us. Good stuff. Never had "cube steak" except at school cafeteria
or diners for "Chicken Fried Steak" type meals.
