The World without CasserolesBe afiard.The breakdown of civilizationis at the hands of our well-meaning,overly thrifty,spoon-wielding mothers.Be very afiard.They are entranced by spicesand covering condiments,pepper and powder,onion and garlic galore.Gingerly they add cumin and dill,cinnamon, nutmeg or cloveswith thyme to add sage and curry,parsley, paprika and allspice.Their casseroles becomezombie foodas the deadreanimates.These cheese-added monsters,hungry for mystery-meat,render brains to mushand bind our bowels.They stiffen our gaitwith numbness and nauseauntil we are rendered victimsof another pepto-pandemic.And in the nightof the living dead,feeding us saltin a casserole apocalypse,we panicked victims becomethe casseroles we consume.Paralyzed in fearby the lightof the open refrigerator.
