Lunch was nice;

Putrid skunk spit with corn garnish ghastly with putrescent whale snot under
tainted cockatoo adenoid and giant garden slug liver vinegar distorted aside
salted rottweiler entrails with lemon marinade complemented by decomposing
live rat embryos accentuated with hideous diseased body parts and fungus
breast compote accompanied with braised cadaver foreskins and apple extract,
dished up in a bubbling double boiler chock full of imported croutons of rat
brain and seaweed with scraps of artichoke in dressing, a side of radish and
a gallon of corn snake gizzard broth.
