Peter: Mom, we are having turkey for Thanksgiving, right? Mom: You've asked me that four times now, Peter. Peter: I know, but sometimes you go all tofu-happy, and I just want to be sure you aren't planning to serve us some gross and disgusting veggie meal instead. Andy: No, Peter, you'll be eating a real, honest-to-goodness dead turkey this Thursday. It's head chopped off, it's blood drained out, it's feathers yanked off, it's organs pulled out, it's cooked flesh cut and picked from it's bones and put on our dinner table, all for the benefit of your little taste buds. No, siree, there'll be nothing "gross and disgusting" served in this house. Peter: Woohoo! Thanks! Andy: Why do I even bother with sarcasm?
This is so true. I’ve had people eating hot dogs tell me that tofu hot dogs are “gross”. That’s right, people eating snouts, hair, tendons, blood and whatever else was swept up off the slaughterhouse floor and rolled into an oblong shape telling me that beans are gross.
