Broccoli: I’m lonesome. No one wants to eat me.
Green bean: Whatever, dude. I might as well be chopped liver.
Chopped liver: Speak for yourself, skinny. I’m totally cool, thanks to Kiddy Cuisine Consulting Services. Founded by chefs, the company gives tips on how to introduce foods to kids.
Green bean: All this over e-mail and phone?
Chopped liver: Sure. But if parents want more help, consultants can design weekly menus or even teach them how to prepare meals.
Broccoli: Well, it must be good if they can work magic for nasties like you.
Chopped liver: Bite me.
