Steph: Mmmmm. The food here looks really good.

Derek: Yeah it does. And it kinda smells good, too. What do you feel like?

Steph: Well, I kinda feel like chicken.

Derek: Really? I’m kinda feelin’ like steak right now.

Steph: Really? I usually try to stay away from the steak. But you’re right. It does look good.

Derek: Yeah. But, you know, the chicken’s healthier, I hear. So…

Steph: It can be. Yeah, I’ve actually had the chicken here and it’s really good. It comes with vegetables and pasta.

Derek: Yeah, that definitely sounds healthy. Not like a greasy, red-blooded steak.

Steph: Yeah, how do you like your steak cooked?

Derek: Um, actually medium-well.

Steph: Mmm, that sounds pretty good.

Derek: Yeah

Steph: Yeah. Well, I think I’ll stick with the chicken.

Derek: Alright.

Discussion

When it comes to food, people have different tastes. Some people love the thought of a big, fat, juicy steak. Others prefer the simple and predictable chicken dish at their favorite eatery. Usually, when I go out, I like to stick with the old standbys, more traditional meals. What about you?
