It'd be dressed. You know what you gotta pay a turkey plucker today? But that's just the cheapest part. Who wants to eat a turkey until he's cooked? You know what a cook gets? Even in a dump like this?

And what about the Russian dressing? I suppose you think Stalin gives it away. Wow. I wouldn't know. Well yet you've got the nerve to complain because a turkey sandwich with Russian dressing costs 55 cents.
