我咬了巧克力片。放慢了自己的速度。然后，将近一个星期的时间，我可以更快地仔细研究层的攻击。巧克力片来自工厂，因此它们具有相同的金属含量，没有味道，而黄油已经从牛牛的牛上拉了，因此丰富的味道不那么饱满。鸡蛋用遥远和塑料的淡淡。所有这些部分都在远处嗡嗡作响，然后将面糊并形成面团的面包师很生气。在饼干本身中发出紧张的愤怒。
(I bit into the chocolate chip. Slowed myself down.By then, almost a week in, I could sort through the assault of layers a little more quickly. The chocolate chips were from a factory, so they had that same slight metallic, absent taste to them, and the butter had been pulled from cows in pens, so the richness was not as full. The eggs were tinged with a hint of far away and plastic. All of those parts hummed in the distance, and then the baker, who'd mixed the batter and formed the dough, was angry. A tight anger, in the cookie itself.)
叙述者反思了体验巧克力曲奇，重点是其成分的复杂性和质量。在工厂生产的巧克力片缺乏新鲜度，而从限制性环境中衍生的牛则衍生出来的黄油会减少其丰富性。这些鸡蛋贡献了遥远的人造风味。当叙述者拯救了饼干时，他们注意到了明显的紧张局势，这不仅表明了成分，而且还表明了面包师的情绪，注入了最终产品。
对食物的这种洞察力揭示了消费与与创造相关的情绪之间的更深层次的关系。饼干成为一种媒介，叙述者通过该媒介探索他人的感受，这表明每一口都带有经验和情感的层次。口味，纹理和情感的相互作用说明了即使像饼干这样的平凡物品也可以反映更深的人类状况。
