Title: Nestle Oyster and Litigants
Description: In this episode, two young mothers, always wanting the best for their babies, come across a container of Farine Lactée Nestlé. I imagine that this is something like "cream of wheat" with milk. The two argue over whose it is: one saw it first and one found it first. This is the very argument that came up between two men on the beach in La Fontaine's fable. One had seen an oyster first, and one possessed first. Their decision was to ask a passerby, who took the oyster, ate it, and divided the shell between the two. In our story, the two women ask Boby, a wise young man, what they should do. He urges them to cook up a cupful. He promptly consumes the cupful and gives the cup to one woman and the saucer to the other. Boby remembers from his youth the sweet flavor of Farine Lactée Nestlé.
