The beef and pork industries are renaming 350 cuts of meat. What do these new meat monikers make us think of?

With the USDA’s blessing, the pork and beef industries are renaming more than 350 different cuts. Here’s what the new meat industry terms mean vs. what I think of when I hear them:
1. Boston Roast (formerly pork butt)

2. Denver Steak (formerly beef-under-blade-boneless-steak)

3. Porterhouse Chops, Ribeye Chops, and New York Chops (formerly pork chops)
