I invite all the parents of small children to join me in quoting from the Nathan Lane
character in "The Lion King":

"Tastes like chicken!"
"Slimy, yet satisfying!" (No, wait, that was Pumbaa.)
"Oohh, the little cream-filled kind!"

(P.S.: My brother was a very promising engineering student in the R.O.T.C., and _his_
military survival test featured mysterious visits from a white Caddillac with U.S. flags
on the fenders, apparently driven by the staff officer of some general or other, who
would drop off bags of fast food before vanishing again. His own contribution to the
survival repertoire was to add Fizzies to his canteen to make the water with the
purification tablets semi-palatable. Was commended for being the only cadet who came
back from the test without serious dehydration...)
