Shopping for dog food
Me: The dog's turning 15. That's gotta be like a human turning 100. We should do something she likes.
B: She likes to eat.
Me: Right.
(back from the wet dog food aisle)
Me: As a meat eater which flavor do you prefer? Filet minion or porterhouse steak?
B: I don't think she'll notice the difference.
Me: It's weird that dogs eat beef, isn't it? Would a dog kill a cow in the wild? Chicken I get, but cattle?
B: I haven't ever really thought about it...You're definitely going with beef then?
Me: Well, chicken's not exotic enough and the only other choice is pork.
B: Hmm.
Me: Yeah, I realized while I was over there that I must have a pretty strong unacknowledged stance on pork consumption because I won't even consider giving it to my dog.
(strange looks from nearby shoppers)
Me: Pigs are gross.
B: Go with the filet minion.
