True story.

My son had a physical therapy appointment and a tutoring appointment yesterday I was taking him to. In between appointments, he asked if we could go to the food court at the nearby mall for shawarma.

I said, "Sure, but we don't want to eat there too often. We have to be careful of mall nutrition."

Not understanding he said "Yeah, it's probably not very good for you. But it does have lots of protein!"

I said "Yeah, but we don't want to end up mall nourished."

Then he got it.

I’m glad Lemmy doesn’t have gold, but I wish I had something more to give for this.

With all that food for thought, your son might be full before getting to the food court!

I can picture the shit-eating grin on your face when you delivered that line, and it's glorious.
