I am probably a stew of some kind, with lots of ingredients, none remotely edible, in the form of balls. Ball stew, yeah, that’s about right… ---

I’m sure I’d be one of those puddings Captain Jack Aubrey is always eating. ---

> [@BigBertha](#): > > good lord, tough one. Maybe if mrs. butterworth died, I could be a bigger better pancake syrup! Any better suggestions?😃 The breakfast special at a truck stop? Anyway, two possibilities for me: either a type of tropical fish, or else an obscure regional English dish, possibly something Cornish buccaneers in the seventeenth century would eat. “Arr, Cap’n, we’ve’ a fine mess o’ lumpy in the galley”. ---

A financially bankrupt brand of tea, occationally drunk by twentish hipsters in a gay coffee house. I don’t think I taste very good. Small Hen is actually the name of my cat, so… ---

A strain of kind bud really conducive to jam sessions. That’s kind of like food, isn’t it? (They still say “kind bud” don’t they?) If it’s more traditional foodstuff you’re after, then I guess something cajun or maybe something from the islands, something gubo-like with a lot of unidentified spices and native plants, mostly collected at midnight under a full moon – come sample from a bubbling cauldron of Rhythm Devil. ---

A handful of peanuts, which you can either eat or throw at the performers. ---

> [@runner pat](#): > > Not quite what you were thinking of: [Buckeyes.](http://allrecipes.com/recipe/buckeyes-i/Detail.aspx) Actually, I was thinking of those (and that happens to be the recipe I use every Christmas). Only I have incorporated buckeyes into a warm, gooey cobbler type dessert served in a big flat bowl. Like a chocolate peanut butter cobbler of some sort. > [@Negative\_Lite](#): > > A diet drink that requires more calories to digest than it produces. 😃 You guys are really good at this! ---

I think I’d have to be some kind of cheap packaged ramen noodle thingy. With way too much MSG. ---

Whatever it is it should have lots of tentacles and piled on a bed of rice embossed with words written with a spidery, ancient script. And it should be brought to your table by a screaming overcaffinated Japanese Game Show host. ---
