Umm tastes good!

Ah, ACME custard, 'tis the best in the multiverse.

Even if it does taste like relish - sorry but its been in my head for 24 hours

<Gives geg a pie for finally succumbing.>

<unsure about receipt of pie, as high velocity made it seem more like weapon than gift>

Why would you keep relish in your head for 24 hours?

Sort of like a marinade?

Hooray!

Hooray for Carrot!

Actually, I was thinking of the other one!

Ta da!

What, not this one?

(I had forgotten that Carrot Ironfoudersson had made captain.)

No, not that one at all! Would anyone like to advance a fourth "Captain Carrot"?

No, but I'll raise you a Captain Vegetable, with his carrot, and his celery...
