They better leave their greedy mitts off the Erbswurst. I'll fly over and blow them to smithereens.

Mhhhh. Grandfather clause? Erbswursts have been around like forever.

It's basically dried pea soup packaged to look like a sausage. You take a piece of it, mix it with water and cook soup from it.

Correct, they used to filter it using fish gelatin, so it wasn't even suitable for veggies, but they changed it this year.

Yep. That's how you spell "Beer" if you want to sell it to vegetables.
