Except when no one’s looking
Don’t play baseball with your Brussels sprouts or tennis with tomatoes. Don’t play soccer with your succotash or ping-pong with potatoes.
Don’t play hockey with your hot dogs. Don’t go bowling with your beans. Don’t play racquetball with rump roast. Don’t play tag with tangerines.
When you’re sitting at the table just enjoy your mother’s cooking, and refrain from playing with your food, except when no one’s looking.
— Kenn Nesbitt, from the book, “The Aliens Have Landed at Our School!”
