I love eggplant! Especially eggplant parmesan. 
Oh my goodness, YES! I had eggplant Parmesan just last week for dinner. I just can't believe eggplant is considered a "fruit"
Really? LOL! That's interesting. 
Yeah! It doesn't taste anything like a fruit...In fact, when I make eggplant parm, it's almost like I'm eating meat. I guess it's because the texture of the fruit is meaty.
Yes. Do you know of any other ways to cook eggplant?
Yeah! Have you heard of Baba ghanoush? It's a dip made with eggplant that's eaten with pita bread. It's also used a lot in greek cooking.
Yes, but have never tried it. Greek's use eggplant a lot in their cooking, don't they?
They do. I've had eggplant spread at Greek restaurants before...it's sooo good. Baba ghanoush is pretty similar too, it's mashed and seasoned into a dip. 
I will have to look it  up and possibly make it. Anything else I should know about eggplant?
Yeah! Well, apparently baba ghanoush is not limited to israeli cuisine. The Levantines and Ethiopians have something similar!
