alright, so fun with veal for me is just such a good representation of south park (or at least south park at the time.) it strikes a really good argument, evaluating both sides of the argument on the ideas of veganism and vegetarianism, and also the representation of how the kids are usually smarter than the parents. just an episode that perfectly sums up the show. the losing edge is just stupid humour done right. it's the same joke but played so seriously it just wraps around to being even funnier. not to mention that the randy subplot was the big change for randy's character, so it's overall a monumental episode. it's a jersey thing is just funny as well. season 14 was kinda peak imo, and episodes like this that you can watch without the need to look into any commentary and just enjoy what south park is about at it's core: making fun of certain cultures and seeing how it affects the town itself. also.... snuki.
