Vocabulary
a difficult quotation
A man (Ben) is examined by psychiatrist. Ben makes ironic remarks about Lithium in therapy (but he wasn't treated):
“We should sprinkle its salty goodness over the fries at McDonald's until we're "Dawn of the Dead" drooling towards Banana Republic, pushing our carts dazed through the market, throwing the meat in, black blood pooling under so much plastic”.
I can understand this quotation to “Dawn of the Dead”. I know what Banana Republic is. What is dazed (carts or we?) and what does it mean in this context? Throwing the meat in? Black blood pooling? What does it mean? God!
Could you please paraphrase this quote for me?

We should sprinkle lithium (lithium is often prepared as a lithium salt) over all of the french fries at McDonald's in the mall, thereby poisoning everyone (I'll already be poisoned with it by you) so that we all become like the ghouls in the movie Dawn of the Dead, lurching, drooling and dazed, towards the Banana Republic store, pushing our shopping carts through the supermarket, throwing the packaged fresh meat (so fresh that there's actually some blood at the bottom of its package - "black blood" I believe is a melodramatic phrase from Moby ****; he's being melodramatic here) into the cart.
