“Onions? The potatoes of Satan!”

Stretch has a bit of a thing against onions.

“I recall my mother taking about egg nog,” says Stretch, “but I don't remember exactly what it was. One of my favourite dinners would be similar to your egg nog - last night's spuds fried in the pan. Best in butter!”
“OK, Sean says, “I’m following you…”
“And an egg cracked into them!” says Stretch. “Powerful stuff! Some folk would put some onions in it as well but as we know onions are the potatoes of Satan and no dinner of mine would be sullied with them!”
With music from Simon and Garfunkel, The Righteous Brothers, The Everly Brothers, and more.
