I suppose that makes a certain amount of sense- I remember as a kid, getting
permission to color everyone's milk with food coloring for April Fools Day,
and a few kids wouldn't drink it. And, come to think of it, even a guy like
Stefan, whom I love dearly, won't eat his vegetables. It just isn't
sensible- but then, I guess, maybe common sense isn't so common after all...

 If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it is probably not a
