'palatial Taste'

All walnuts have shells
  Some potatoes have eyes
Apples have skins
  That's no surprise

A pea's in a pod
  Corn's in a husk
Store veggies too long
  They'll smell like old musk

Fish have scales
  Chickens have wings
If eggs had three feet
  Would you like them to eat

I find dishes spicy
  Make me feel dicey
My palate says food
  Tastes much better nude

Three drumsticks per chicken. Great!

Just remember, eat those drumsticks nude. (I leave that comment as ambiguous as the thought that preceded it). Cheers, Gershon
