Shoeshine man to group of young people: It ain't natural. Our bodies, they have the <em>hormones</em> to digest meat. If we were like a goat--and not to insult you, miss, 'cause you're prettier than a goat--but then that's okay that we don't eat meat. But we ain't. We're carnivores. If you're a vegetarian, you gotta listen to your body. It's tellin' you: "<em>Meat me</em>!" You know, like, "<em>Meat me</em>!"
