"Waiter! I'll have the Lunch Special, Field Chicken"
"Certainly sir"
Bill ate heartily savouring every bite.
"Waiter, This field chicken, why is it so called?"
"Sir, the rodents are wild, not farmed."
"Rodents? Then why call it chicken?"
"Well sir, If we called it field rodent, nobody would order it!"
