Rather than making you never want to eat chicken again, it simply makes you angry. It makes you hold a grudge. You'll eat chicken again, by God, and you'll chew really, really hard.

In David Rakoff's essays in "Fraud," he explores the complex emotions that arise from negative experiences, particularly with food like chicken. Instead of causing an aversion to eating chicken altogether, these experiences evoke a sense of anger and determination. Readers are compelled to confront their feelings towards something they once enjoyed, leading to a deeper understanding of their own grudges.

The anger that emerges from these experiences transforms the appreciation of the food into a grueling task. Rakoff's reflection suggests that rather than abandoning chicken for good, one might approach it with a newfound resilience, choosing to engage with the food more intensely. This duality of enjoyment and ire captures the struggle of human emotions in relation to everyday experiences.
