[Scene: We’re sitting at the table eating lunch when Liam asks Gran for some of her spinach salad. She obliges. He then goes about picking out all of the goat cheese and asks for more, which he gets. He’s also having ‘chicken’ nuggets and ketchup (and raisins — but they’re not pertinent to the story…). The following is what happens next.]
Liam: Mmmm, Mmmm! I love goat cheese.
Gran: I know you do. It’s good, isn’t it?
Liam:Â [Dips a large chunk of goat cheese in his ketchup and puts it in his mouth –Â screwing up his mouth in a most unfortunate manner and looking mildly confused, since he’s never encountered a food that he doesn’t feel is better with ketchup.]
Gran:Â That didn’t taste so good, huh?
Liam: Di. Gus. Ting.
