“Of all the things supposed to taste like chicken, this doesn’t.”

“Gee, this must be chicken.”

“How can you tell?”

“It doesn’t taste like chicken.”

That stuff is in everything!

It could be a lot worse, he could be eating Agu jjim, aka Monkfish casserole, a figurative bowl of lava, burning from start to finish.

Biryani is one of the mildest Indian dishes. Now if it had been Vindaloo, I’d be more sympathetic. I do note the Fremen eyes though, so good wordplay. :-)

It’s been a long time since I read Dune but I thought spice was a drug, not essential to the economy like in the new movie.

My first thought was it was her concoction, but i don’t think that’s her name. Maybe her mother’s.

So, it’s perfect!

Years ago I nuked a frozen Thai dinner at work. I made the mistake of eating the red chili.After I recovered I reread the directions. “Do not eat the chili.For flavoring only.”

He must be a slice wimp, or someone messed up the spices. Biryani is pretty mild

MMMMM Japanese chicken curry for dinner tonight.

She: Well, the chef is from India you know.

Biryani strong? What do you eat usually, white bread?

Probably too much heat, not spice.

I didn’t know his name was “Biryani”.

The Spice must flow!

AH! I never saw the movie, but read Dune way back when it was serialized in Analog. When I read your comment, it all made sense.

Yeah, Herbie is a wimp.

Blue eyes. I get it now.
