Excellent come back. I married a choosey, pickey eater. We generally tell 
people he will eat nothing that swims in the ocean or flies in the sky, has 
fin, or feather. It makes him very scary for most cooks at feasts, as well, 
as he tends to be very "upfront" about the way something was prepared or 
presented. It can, however, be a wonderful compliment from him when he 
*likes* something. I heard a feastocrat say one time: "Yeah, the King liked 
it. But even *better*, Captain Morgan *liked* it...."
