“I believe you’ve spelled it wrong,” said the diner.
“No, see; it’s spelled out right there. Clear as day,” replied Destini, their server, pointing her pencil.
The diner was insistent, “You’ve either spelled it wrong or – I don’t want to eat here. What’s in it?”
“Just garbanzo beans, tahini, and lemon juice with roasted red peppers and basil, real healthy. ‘Course it comes with pita chips.”
Lol. I would not eat it either. “Homunculus”? it sounds ucky!

Ewwwwwww. “You either spelled it wrong, or I don’t want to eat here.” Pretty much sums up my thoughts on eating a homunculus.

I would be suspicious of that too. But I’m suspicious of most food, especially since my oranges became bigger than my grapefruits.

You can’t ever go wrong noshing on homunculus and pita chips! (Thank goodness they didn’t print Hamas and pita chips, equally gross.) Another great one, TN.

Oh man, that’s brilliant! Now that is a very clever way to handle a pretty tricky prompt. I’m ready to go out get some Humus now. Love it.
