Jack: "Mommy, is turkey real?"
Mom: "What do you mean 'real'?"
Jack: "Like real, real?"
Mom: "Like as in a real turkey?"
Jack: "Yes, but dead."
Mom: "Yes, the turkey we eat is real."
Jack: [hold for long pause]..... "But it's dead. So it once was real but now it's dead."
Mom: "Yes hon, sometimes animals have to die so we can live."
Jack: [hold for another long pause - so long I thought the conversation was over]..... "Ok, can we have some beef with our turkey this year?"
