My Favorite Animal Our teacher asked what my favorite animal was and I said, "Fried chicken." She said I wasn't funny, but she couldn't have been right, because everyone else laughed. My parents told me to always tell the truth. I did. Fried chicken is my favorite animal. I told my dad what happened, and he said my teacher was probably a member of PETA. He said they love animals very much. I do, too. Especially chicken, pork and beef. Anyway, my teacher sent me to the principal's office. I told him what happened, and he laughed, too. Then he told me not to do it again. The next day in class my teacher asked me what my favorite live animal was. I told her it was chicken. She asked me why, so I told her it was because you could make them into fried chicken. She sent me back to the principal's office. He laughed, and told me not to do it again. I don't understand. My parents taught me to be honest, but my teacher doesn't like it when I am. Today, my teacher asked us to tell her what famous person we admire most. I told her, "Colonel Sanders." Guess where I am now ...?

The truth sometimes gets us into all types of trouble. When my son was around 3 I asked him what he wanted for dinner. "Chicken" he said, and then added, "but not the walking chicken with eyes"

I wish I could laugh with you Epi, however, I can remember getting fried chicken, when I was little and it had little feathers on it still. When I complained, my parents did what they always did, and told me to be quiet and eat it anyway. And then everyone wonders why, to this day, I turn down all "Pot Luck" invitations! Rolling my eyes here* "Pot Luck" = Home made experiments!!!

I cant remember which of my kids for a while didnt like chicken or lamb because they could associate them with being animals. Pork or beef were alright because we dont have a pork or beef animal by name.
