So this story showed up recently in digital and social
medium. The story is about a rat being served from KFC (they are famous for
frying chicken really deep). It seems that the person who has been served the
rat was not very happy with this service as he asked for a chicken and not a
rat.
The funny part is that the people who are ready to eat out
anything moving under the sun are against such swapping act from KFC. Their
argument is that rat is not supposed to be served in KFC, this argument is
based on the fact that the chicken were sanitized and announced medically fit
by an international animal loving organization. This organization also gave
clearance to the other humble beings as well but KFC got the license only for
chicken and not for the others.
The second argument was that the rat was served as a whole.
It had a proper nose, face, tails and a stomach which was filled with such high
quality nutrients. This is not true because the stomach was filled with a
delicacy (a secret ingredient of KFC) and not with the sewage sludge.
The rat in the question didn't die innocent and he (of
course, I'm not going to use “it”) left a letter for me. In this letter he
has mentioned that he has been a delicacy in so many third world countries but
was never accepted as a delicacy in first world countries (I think they call
them developed countries). He just wanted to prove that he is as good as
chicken and as innocent as the butcher of KFC who is responsible for the
glorious slaughter of millions of chickens around the world. He strongly
believed that given a chance he would like to be on the platter of anybody who
can afford it.
He also put a request that his brethren be treated as equal to
chickens, fish, prawns, lambs and all such sort of servings. He raised a
question if Ratatouille is a dish including rats as a primary ingredient but I
wanted to tell him that this dish was an ordinary one with no living being included.
This is a dish for the barbarians who can’t relish the taste of meat, fat,
bones and other body parts.
I just want to appeal on the behalf of our loving fried rat to
all those not so humble beings to bestow their benign vulture-gaze on everything
moving under the sun with an open mind and keep on feasting on everything so that
nobody tries such a daredevil act again and feels left out.
I'm sure our lovely rat will have a deep fried grin on his
face when he will see that his sacrifice is not in vain and the people are
going to devour his fellows with equal zeal.
