CHRISTMAS OVER INDULGENCE


from the ABC set CHRISTMAS TALES - FOOD AND DRINK

There isn’t any doubt or question
What caused this awful indigestion
It wasn’t the five course lunch
Or all the sweets we had to munch
It wasn’t the Lager the Stout or the Shandy
It wasn’t the Wine the Scotch or the Brandy
No the culprit with out any doubts
Was the obligatory spoonful of sprouts

Ha,ha! the dreaded sprouts, only eaten at Christmas
in our house.

Liked this one Paul.

This poem is very sproutist, Paul! Try cutting them in half, frying them in olive oil and adding a dash of soy sauce - lovely!

The problem is that sprouts have an unfortunate side effect which can cause embarassment in mixed gatherings.
Cheers
