Great scene in a great film..... Shame it was under appreciated..... Good example of people making a fun film, rather than one trying to be fun.... If that makes sense? And it shows that you can be as absurd as you like as long as that absurdity is real in the world context you have defined.

A wonderful film, and this is one of the funniest scenes in it - because of the truth underlying the absurdity. We all know someone who takes their dietary preferences way too seriously, and this scene just take that to its (il)logical conclusion...
