A Fashion Show for Vegetarians

At a fashion show for vegetarians this carrot appeared on the catwalk, decorated with a little sieve for camomile tea and vegetable mix. The vegetarians were applauding wildly so she went to put on another costume - a glass of milk on wheels. The carrot pushed it like a baby carriage in front of her and at the end of the runway she jumped into the milk. Again the vegetarians applauded like crazy.
Then she came out wearing a large slice of Emmental. She teased the vegetarians, cocette-style, through the holes in the cheese and they were so aroused that they jumped up from their seats crying bravo! bravo!. Now, enormously pleased with herself, she exited to put on another costume: this time it was oats porridge sprinkled with chocolate, sugar and some butter. She was pirouetting and spinning around, striking different poses in the spotlight. The porridge, meanwhile, was drying out very quickly and several vegetarians, especially those in the front rows, felt sick as it took them back to their childhood. After casting a vote they asked the carrot to come out at the finale in a rinse of pure natural water and the stupid goose, drunk with success, obeyed them. As soon as she entered the spotlight, fresh, clean and bright red, everyone leapt on her, because they all wanted their slice. They began to brawl and panic flared when many had their fingers gnawed, some even bitten off completely. In fact, in the melee, a few people swallowed those fingers and thus ceased being vegetarians. They were never admitted to a fashion show for vegetarians again - a fitting punishment because they deserved it.
