The Restaurant at the End of the Universe.
A large cow with big eyes and a smile approached Zaphod’s table. “Good evening,” it said and sat down, “Are you ready to order? I’m the main Dish of the Day. May I interest you in parts of my body?”
“Er, your shoulder?” said Arthur horrified.
“But naturally my shoulder, sir.”
Zaphod jumped up and and felt the animal’s shoulder.
“My meat is very good,” it said. “I’ve been exercising and eating plenty of grass.”
“This animal actually wants us to eat it!” whispered Trillian.
“That’s horrible!” exclaimed Arthur.
“What’s the problem, Earthman?” said Zaphod.
“I don’t want to eat an animal that’s standing there inviting me to,” said Arthur, “it’s cruel.”
“It’s better than eating an animal that doesn’t want to be eaten, said Zaphod.”
“That’s not the point,” Arthur protested. Than he thought for a moment. “Alright,” he said, “maybe it is, but…” He looked at the menu.
“I think I’ll just have a salad.”
The cow spoke up. “Why don’t you have some nice roast beef with peas and carrots? Or how about a steak fried with onions? Rare, medium or well done?”
“A salad,” said Arthur emphatically, “some lettuce, cucumber and tomatoes and maybe some sweetcorn.”
“A salad,” said an animal, disapprovingly.
“Are you telling me I shouldn’t have salad?”
“Well,” said the animal, “I know many vegetables that don’t think you should. Which is why it was such a good idea to create an animal that actually wants to be eaten and can say so clearly. And here I am.”
“A glass of water,please,” said Arthur.
“Look,” said Zaphod, “I’m really hungry! Four rare steaks please, and hurry. We havent eaten in five hundred and seventy-six thousand million years.”
The animal looked delighted.
“A very good choice, sir, if I may say so. I’ll just go and shoot myself.”
As it walked slowly towards the kitchen, it gave Arthur a friendly smile.
“Don’t worry, sir,” he said. “I’ll be very humane.”
A few minutes later the waiter arrived with four huge steaks served with mashed potatoes, boiled cabbage and mushrooms. Zaphod and Ford started eating without a second’s hesitation. Trillian paused, then picked up her knife and fork.
Arthur started at his feeling slightly ill.
“Hey, Earthman,” said Zaphod with a malicious smile on the face that wasn’t stuffing itself, “what’s eating you?”
