Beef or Chicken


One of the major community events in our small rural town is the Annual FFA Rocky Mountain Oyster Fry.  They serve approximately 400 lbs. of oysters and 200 lbs. of fried chicken breast and people patiently wait for up to 90 minutes to pay $8 per plate of the delicacy. 

Last year, Ben explained to Bryce that we weren't going to be eating seafood, but that the "oysters" were the testicles from young bulls that are deep-fat fried and served with all the fixin's.  Bryces response was, "Gross, who would want to eat that?"

So this year, it was no surprise when Ben asked if the family wanted to come with him to the Oyster Fry and Bryce emphathically exclaimed that there was no way he was eating rocky mountain oysters.  Ben replied that they would also be serving fried chicken breast when Bryce said in a disgusted tone, "What's wrong with you people wanting to eat private parts?"

Needless to say, we got a big laugh at that and the family never did go to the Annual FFA Oyster Fry!
