It is written:

Lo, and there shall come a mighty cuskynole upon the earth, and it shall
be made from a thin sheet of dough, cut into many pieces, and a filling
shall be made from a mixture of fresh and dried fruits and nuts, crushed
in a mortar. And the filling shall be applied to the dough, and the
dough shall be wrapped around it and sealed thusly according to a
diagram that is hard to reproduce in ASCII text, after which the said
cuskies shall be boiled, thereafter roasted on a gridiron, and served
forth to the righteous.  And in those days giants walked the earth, and
there was dissention and strife among them concerning the meaning of the
diagram, and the One True Way to make cuskynoles.

And the giants fought not once, but many times, over a period of many
centuries, uprooting trees and laying waste the land, while men and
women cowered behind large rocks (but not Margali's rock) like the
little kids in baseball caps in Japanese monster movies...

After centuries of bloody war, the giants did reach an accord whereby we
Don't Go There, and while many do speak of cuskynoles in whispered
voices in the dark of night, no man dares invoke their name in the
bright light of day...

That's about it, huh, folks?
