You Eat What You Are

【Introduction】

尽管我们的餐盘上堆满了死去的动物，而我们从来没花太多的吃饭时间考虑自己的

Despite how many dead animals we pile onto our plates, we don't spend much
eating time thinking about our own death. Sure, there's the rare sparring with
fugu or fishing through a box of Sno-Caps at those Left Behind movies, but
death-row inmates aside, most of us don't think much about our last meal.

mayonnaise, asked for scrambled eggs, a chee seburger and a steak. "There's always
a return to childhood or some country-ass thing. The word Mom comes up at least
a third of the time," says Travel Channel host Anthony Bourdain, who played the
last-supper game many nights when he was cooking. "If someone comes up with a
