re: #302 chadu

No sarc, but I just finished reading Gene Wilder’s autobio (Kiss Me Like a Stranger), and his dad’s complete dissociation with eating spareribs (called “Pig on the Cob”) and pork was breathtaking.

Reminds me of a dear Jewish college friend who said that pork fried rice didn’t “count” because “the ‘pork’ is just marketing.” (Though he did say that with a sarc tag and waggling eyebrows.)

i college i was having lunch in the chinese food section of the food court with my jordanian lab partner. when i pointed out that he was having pork fried rice, he made a hand motion and said, “for the purposes of this lunch i declare it to be chicken”
