  Jim: Here, take a bite of this.
  Sandy: Mmm…It’s good. What is it?
  Jim: It’s an ostrich burger.
  Sandy: An ostrich burger! It tastes like a lot like chicken.
  Jim: Yeah, kind of strange to be eating ostrich but it’s excellent. What’ve you got?
  Sandy: My usual, pizza. Wanna bite?
  Jim: With – what is that – octopus and squid? You call that usual? How can you eat that stuff?
  Sandy: I guess I got used to it. You should try it – it’s good for you.
  Jim: I did have octopus once – it didn’t have that much taste. And it was too rubbery.
  Sandy: It’s just really chewy. It doesn’t have that much flavor, really.
  Jim: Yeah, chewy! Like an eraser. Oh, no, what’s that?
  Sandy: Oh, I got the dancing shrimp on the side.
  Jim: But that’s raw! Is it still alive?
  Sandy: Yeah. I like the mild salty flavor.
  Jim: Aren’t you afraid of getting sick?
  Sandy: What do you mean?
  Jim: I’ve heard that raw seafood is dangerous.
  Sandy: You don’t know what you’re missing. If you tried the dancing shrimp I’m sure you’d change your mind.
  Jim: I doubt it. Want some of my fries?
  Sandy: Uhh…too salty for me. And you think raw seafood is dangerous!
