Dear Diary:

A T-bone steak was riding the uptown 1 train on the evening of July 5. I noticed this oddity when I boarded at 34th Street. The steak sat alone at the end of a row of orange seats: fresh, bright red and grocery-wrapped in plastic on a white, plastic foam tray.

Passengers were fully distancing themselves, almost shunning this conspicuous item. (It looked fine, actually.)

I broke the ice.

“Look, a T-bone.”

I finally got that!
