A: hello Jason. Are you free this Saturday evening?
J: yes, I have no plans.
A: would you like to come to our barbecue?
J: yes, that sounds wonderful.
A: Ok. See you then.
J: but wait, wait, will there be food that is not meat? You know, I am a vegetarian.
A: hey! I didn't know that! When did you become a vegetarian?
J: the other day, I decided that I needed to lose some weight so I am going to try to be a vegetarian. And you know what? I don't miss the taste of meat.
A: really? That's amazing.
J: yes, it really is. After having vegetarian diet, I have much more energy, I need less sleep, I feel calmer, I can maintain an ideal body weight without worrying about how much I eat and I can think more clearly.
A: are you kidding? I really don't think that you think less clearly on non-vegetarian diet.
J: yes, maybe. But I feel better since becoming a vegetarian. Maybe you could also have a try.
A: maybe I'll also have a try some day, but I'm afraid that it would be difficult for me to refuse meat!
J: maybe you would change your mind after having vegetarian diet.
A: we'll see. Anyway, I'll prepare some vegetarian food for the barbecue. See you then!
