A friend of mine told me about “ubervores”—people who try to prove their innate superiority by only eating certain things that are “better” than the slop we normal folks gulp from our troughs. Like that coffee that is made from beans pre-digested by a lemur in Madagascar! I thought she was kidding, but it exists. Apparently they gather the little crittur’s droppings, clean up the coffee beans, and sell them for boocoos to “gourmets.”
My MIL’s coffee tasted like lemur droppings…but she bought regular stuff.

I’d be more embarrassed by wearing the same dress as the lady on the other side of the table.
