Ancient Food Crimes; Friday, First Period [06/10].
"You know," said Summer, shaking her head a little as she stood in front of the class with three new shiny cloches on the counter to better reveal the mind-boggling retro concoctions she'd be subjecting them all to today, "sometimes, I think I've definitely got a direction I'd like to take the class when we get there at the beginning of the week, and then, usually at the very last minute, I stumble across something so ridiculousamazing that I have to reroute that shit like a GPS. These ones aren't even gross, and the only crime I would levy against them is excess and being stupendously extra, but, of course, I just couldn't not share them with you all.
"Because, y'all....I've got a goddamn Fruit Salad Treasure Chest."
She lifted the cloche to reveal said treasure chest in all its pineapple and mayonnaise-"gilded" glory.
"I mean," said Summer. "Just look at it. It is so dumb, and I love it, and I had to share it. And, naturally, in the spirit of making a pineapple look like something it's not, I thought we'd discuss the classic making-something-look-like-a-pineapple example of the liver sausage pineapple. And of course, to finish us out, because all good things come in threes, I'd like you all to meet Frankie Doodle Dandy, one of many attempts to make meals more fun for kids that wind up pretty much probably just being nightmare fuel. There were a lot of options in that category to choose from that I might use another class to focus on it, but there's just something about Frankie here that feels particularly....visceral that I just couldn't pass up.
"Anyway, there's plenty here to enjoy, so come on up, give some of it a try, and we'll continue on our ultimate quest as to whether they were onto something here or if it's definitely time to give the past a lifetime sentence for..."
She looked back, at the liver pineapple in particular. "This."

Which meant there was a good chance there was going to be a third time eventually in Stark's future.
Eventually, maybe he'll start feeling disappointed if it doesn't show up one day.

He would not be disappointed to never see it again, sorry Summer.
"I do like the fruit chest. Did it take a long time?"
