The cabbage's tartness complements the richness of the foie gras.

I got busted by a sniffer dog for bringing an apple into Australia. I'd been given it on the fucking plane from Tokyo, like.

I got busted in Chicago for having a banana peel. Little bastard of a dog. I only had the fucking thing cos there wasn't a bin anywhere to dump it. They marked my customs form and when I went to clear costums they made me open all my luggage and searched the fuck out of it. Pricks.
