Enuff of Food
Friday, March 31st, 2006Lunch:chicken
Dinner: chicken
the next day:chicken…chicken rice, chicken soup, fried chicken….
I have been stuffing myself with chicken DNA. Feels like my entire cells are now composed as a result of catabolism of chicken meat. My goodness..have i tried to avoid chicken but it’s hard…most meals will have chicken in it, and whenever i tried to select ‘non-chicken associated’ food..i found my options limited.Oh boy..i’m just tired of chicken..
Speaking of chicken..i once watched "chicken run". As an insensitive movie audience, i hardly shed tears in any movie. However, to my surprise, i actually find "chicken run" a deeply moving movie. I almost couldn’t bear to watch it till the end. In that movie, chickens are like slaves waiting to be slaughtered by their owner to be served as a delicious meal on our table. They lay eggs only to give it away. One day, a rooster landed on their farm. Apparently the rooster is a refugee trying to escape from the circus. All the chicken community put their hope on that rooster. They thought that rooster can fly.And that he is their hope to escape and experience true freedom. Rooster tricked them all along(rooster can’t fly la) till one day the chickens discovered the truth and there goes their dreams of freedom.Ooowwh…this is heartbreaking.
The first thought that came to my mind (which i assume the moral of the story) was this: "Don’t wanna eat chicken anymore lah"
