Title: Didopatties
Date: 24 July 2001
I married into a very rich family who lived in a renovated shopping mall. The father was obsessed with renovations, and as soon as one job was completed he would start another. Shortly after renovating a water fountain area into a dining room, the family invited me for dinner. (They sat around the water fountain like it was a Sushi bar. The water fountain was huge, with an elaborate "spray and fall" centre). They sent my wife out of the room, and told me it was time to reveal their secrets. The mother sat me next to the fountain and showed me these patties, which she called "Didopatties". They came vacuum sealed in packs of 4. You took a Didopatty and then you concentrated on any food you desired, and the Didopatty would turn into that food. I concentrated on escargot in garlic sauce with French bread. A butler stood at the side of the fountain and when my Didopatty changed into esgarcot, he said "Your dinner, sir".
