James Younes asks:

詹姆斯·尤尼斯问道：

"How do I get my vegetarian sister to eat meat?"

“怎么让吃素的妹妹吃肉呢？”

This... is an extremely hard question!

这真是一个极其难回答的问题！

Take her to Ruth's Chris. Get her to try one bite. Just one bite won't hurt.

带她去Ruth's Chris餐厅。让她尝一口荤菜。只吃一口不会有害处的。

Make a type of dish that doesn't look like a dead animal. Maybe like a soup or put it in a sandwich and just give it to her and just be like, "I made this for you."

做一道看上去不像死亡动物的菜。也许可以做个汤或是把肉放到三明治里，然后拿给她，跟她说：“这是我给你做的”。

Starve her for a few days, okay, and then bring out a nice juicy hamburger, fresh, or with some bacon on it. Let her smell it.

饿她几天，然后拿出一个美味多汁的汉堡包，可以是鱼肉汉堡或是培根汉堡。让她闻一下。

That's something very hard to do, so I'ma say just keep her vegetarian, man.

这是很难做到的事情，我的建议是就让她继续做素食主义者吧。

You don't! Don't make your vegetarian sister eat meat. That's her choice, not yours!

你不能这样做！不要让你吃素的妹妹吃肉。那是她的选择，不是你的！

She's vegetarian for a reason-because it's her life and she could choose what she wants.

她选择做素食主义者肯定是有理由的，那是她的生活，她可以选择她想做的事情。

If she doesn't want to eat meat, let her be. You know, that's the way she wants to eat and it's probably even good for her.

如果她不想吃肉，那就随她去吧。你知道，那是她的饮食方式，那甚至可能对她有好处。

The more you push her, the bigger problem you're going to have trying to convince her.

你越逼她，你在说服她时就会遇到更大的问题。

I'm vegetarian, so if she wants to be vegetarian then let her.

我就是素食主义者，如果她想做素食主义者，那就随她去吧。
