(Angela's Ashes: Young Frank McCourt eats the dinner he is being paid to carry to a workman.)
I'll tell him I was attacked by a dog on the Dock Road and he ate the whole dinner and I'm lucky I escaped without being eaten myself. Oh, is that so? says Bill Galvin. And what's that bit of cabbage hanging on your gansey? Did the dog lick you wit his cabbagey gob?
I had a cat who loved brussels sprouts and fresh mushrooms... We lived in a apartment once with a shared balcony, and one day she came in from the balcony, with a plastic produce bag in her mouth which contained 3 or 4 fresh mushrooms that she had stolen from the neighbors! She was a larcenous one...
@8- dogs love anything. ANYTHING. The only thing that keeps them from being indiscriminate nom-ing machines of death is some modicum of training. So any dog you get will probably love cabbage purely on this principle alone.
My dogs go fucking apeshit for popcorn; needless to say, they are fun to watch movies with.
@7 I used to have a cat burglar who would regularly go into the neighbors' garages and pilfer pretty much whatever she could carry - usually something in a plastic bag like a McDonald's toy. But when our neighbors did construction, that shit was out of control. So many bags of bolts and screws and nails!
My cat will eat anything. (The vet calls her "highly motivated by food.") Artichoke, corn, all manner of greens and, of course, any form of animal. But the thing that kills me is when she noms on raw ginger. She'll even cat burglar it out of the trash. It's just not right.
Still, pretty cute.
