Waiter:
Would you all like to see the menu? Or would you care to meet the main dish of the day?
Arthur:
Meet?
Trillian:
What is it?
Waiter:
It’s an Ameglian Major Cow. I’ll bring him over.
Zaphod:
Ok, we’ll meet the meat. that’s cool. [a large Pig-like creature is wheeled in on a trolley]
Dish of the Day:
Bweeeh… [clears throat] Good evening, Madam and Gentlemen. I am the main Dish of the Day. May I interest you in parts of my body? [Arthur and Trillian go “Huh?”]
Ford:
Oh, well.
Dish of the Day:
Something off my shoulder, perhaps, brazed in a little White Wine sauce?
Arthur:
Your shoulder?
Dish of the Day:
Well, naturally mine, sir. Nobody else’s is mine to offer. [clears throat] The, uh, rump is very good, sir. I have been exercising and eating plenty of grain so there’s a lot of good meat there. [moos] Or a casserole of me, perhaps?
Trillian:
You mean this animal actually wants us to eat it?
Ameglian Major Cow, must have been created for flavor as well.
