Pork and spinach calzone?

[Unknown Poltroon]

This is one of those times where we have to ask "Is humanity really ready for a pork and spincah clazone?"

When I eat I always separate my food into individual places. My pototoes are always separated from the stuffing which is also separate from the turkey. If I was faced with this kind of food, I don't know if I could even begin to eat.

And of course it would be eaten with...

...a SPORK!

Popeye's clones will promote this "food".

Spinach-enhanced pork will taste so bad, they'll have to do a new Popeye propaganda campaign to promote it among kids. However, this time it'll be a Popeye clone, with some of Brutus' genes thrown into the mix. What we'll have will be a bigger bearded Popeye that will rescue Olivia and then will hit her.

(and as long as they're at it, they put a woman that's both intelligent and good-looking to replace Olivia, who lacks BOTH traits)

Can you imagine spinach and pork mixed together?

Yes, I can, and it's quite good. I don't have my father's recipe, but I found one here which looks tasty.

The problem I see is of course the fact that pork and spinach recipes work because their tastes are married; that is, they are separate and then blend. I fear that this may taste like a half-pork half-spinach culinary disaster, like a soup that was put in the blender rather than simmered for hours.

(yes, I know the resultant pig won't actually taste like spinach--whether it tastes like pork will be another matter--but will only make the goyim super-strong, like Popeye).

I'm actually aware that in some areas, and at some times, margarine was un-colored. My mother and grandmother have mentioned in stories of mixing the yellow coloring packets into the stuff. And I remember signage in some of the corner cafe's in Brooklyn where I ate durring college there was signage regarding how everything served was real butter, and it mentioned the legal statue that governed this.
I however was going for the simpler connotation, but you do bring to light a signifcant flaw to the metaphor.
Thanks for reading.
