地道美语听力播客:Dietary Restrictions and Preferences
Tony: Who did you invite over for dinner Saturday?
Carmela: I invited Keith, Sung, Stephanie, and Luis.
Tony: You didn’t!
Carmela: I did. Why?
Tony: You’re going to have a hard time cooking for them. Keith is a vegan and only eats food that’s organic . Sung is lactose intolerant and his doctor put him on a low-salt diet .
Carmela: Really? I didn’t know. How do you know so much about their diets?
Tony: I went on a trip with them and I’ll never do it again. We could never agree on a restaurant.
Carmela: What about Stephanie and Luis?
Tony: Stephanie is a health nut, and doesn’t eat anything with saturated fat , added sugar, or artificial flavors . She also doesn’t eat red meat . And Luis, he can only eat gluten-free kosher foods.
Carmela: This is a disaster. How am I going to cook for all four of them?
Tony: Beats me . Maybe you can turn it into a potluck . At least each of your guests will have one dish they can eat.
Carmela: I can’t invite my friends over for dinner and then tell them to bring their own food!
Tony: Well, you wanted a solution and beggars can’t be choosers .
Carmela: You’re right. Desperate times call for desperate measures !
