The Creation of an Desert Treat in One Act
Wealthy 19th Century Meat Packing Baron: Why in this world of mighty steam powered machines and cheap chinee labor should I settle for only making a profit off of the meat, skins, intestines, and tallow of these abundant Texas longhorns. What about all these retched leftover bones?
(The baron points to a passing research scientist)
Baron: You! Egghead! Make something from these bones that I can sell. We'll call whatever it is Jell-o.
Scientist: Ok.
Baron: Indeed you will. and when you're done with that fetch me a phosphate and some laudanum.
