Gross! A horrifying "show and tell" for a vegetarian like me! And the boy looks so proud.

And of course that's the whole point, juxtaposing his pride to the others' horror, including our own.

The New Yorker has had a number of macabre cartoons like that one.

To me, the point is that the boy is JUSTIFIABLY proud. He probably learned that life skill from his dad or grandfather. City kids, country kid. This is why standardized tests don't work.
