Episode 14: The Giant Salad

Cutter left the parade early. He needed to get back to the newspaper office.

His leg never completely recovered from his dam-building days. He had caught it under a log and had a limp.

As Cutter opened the door to the newspaper office he was taken aback. "Hey, what is this?" he asked no one in particular. The newspaper team looked at him in wonderment. They were surprised too.

There in the middle of the room was a giant salad. Five types of lettuce, piled high with cooked leeks and assorted vegetables. A huge note was attached, which read:

So, Mr. Cutter, you like to flatten your food with your tail. Well, take a look at this. You could flatten it, but I recommend you work around the edge of this and then start at the top and work your way down. Your friend Snooks and his American ways destroy the flavor.

-Thomas K.

P.S. I suggest the next editorial read: "The world was not flat and neither should your food be flat. Pile high, America!"

Sir Francis and Bebop walked by at that exact moment. They read the note. They were stunned, then had big smiles. "Oh boy," Sir Francis said out loud, "Snooks has really started something."

Bebop had this incredible urge and dove into the salad. This is rabbit heaven, he thought to himself. "Flat is out -- piled high is in," he yelled, and lettuce was everywhere in the newspaper office!
