Dinner and a movie
Working on some theme dinner parties. Here's what I have so far.
Updated notes: I've added a number of new combinations. This originated from an old joke about Bambi and is quickly becoming quite an interesting gustatory tour. While searching for recipes I came across mention of a fascinating sound book: Unmentionable Cuisine by Calvin W. Schwabe. Here's a review by M.F.K Fisher.
And I should also mention this article, What's wrong with eating man's best friend?

What about "Sharktales"?
Good stuff ... I'll have the Finding Nemo, and my vegetarian husband will have the Veggie Tales.
We'll leave the kindergartner out of it. Ahem.
Sharktales sounds good.
I need a movie for veal. I know there's something out there with baby cows, but I've had a total brain freeze.
bill.
Interesting. I'm sure you're right, and yet when, out of curiosity, I Googled, I actually couldn't locate a movie or kids show or cartoon character that was a calf. Of course, I only scanned a few pages.
Now, aren't baby elephants called calves? A stretch, but if you're desperate ...
; )
... Because then you could use Dumbo ...
How about HuFu with fava beans and a nice Chianti while watching The Silence of the Lambs?
