Rochelle Quote #21

Quote from Rochelle in Everybody Hates Sausage

Adult Chris: [v.o.] Back at home, my mother was cooking. I never knew how many meals you could make with sausage. Chicken-fried sausage, sausage on a stick, Kung Pao sausage... but the was only one problem.
Tonya: I hate sausage.
Rochelle: Oh, come on, baby. You haven't even tried it.
Tonya: That's 'cause I hate sausage.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] That look means "There's a smack over here, if you want it."
Julius: Can she just eat her vegetables?
Rochelle: I thought vegetables wasn't a meal. Now, I should send you to Africa, since you don't want to eat.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] My mother could deal with a lot of things, but a child who wouldn't eat wasn't one of it.
Rochelle: You're going to sit there until you eat that sausage.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] That look means "I'm still thinking about knocking you out of that chair."
