“Hey, Phaedrus. C’mere a sec.”
“What’s up, Heracles?”
“Got an idea to bounce off you.”
“Shoot.”
“You know all this wheat stuff we got?”
“Yeah.”
“Well, we got a lot of it.”
“Like a golden sea, its waves flowing in the wind.”
“I told you, don’t say stuff like that. Anyway, tastes nasty, right?”
“Oh, yeah.”
“Okay, well, here’s what I’m thinking. We get a couple rocks, right? And we use the rocks to grind the stuff into a powder. And we do that to a lot of wheat. Get a whole bowl full of powder.”
“Why?”
“I’m getting to it. Now, we take that big bowl of powder, and we add, let’s see, some water from the stream, and… some of the white stuff you get from squeezing a cow, and… what else we got? A couple of those things that come out of chickens’ butts.”
“Dude!”
“I know, but stick with me. We mix all that up, and then we add some of that powdery sweet stuff along with, I don’t know, some dried-out beer foam. Let that sit out in the sun and see if it gets big and puffy.”
“Why would it get big and puffy?”
“I don’t know, but it might. So if it does, we’ll have a big, gooey, puffy blob.”
“We’re gonna eat that?”
“No, no. We’re gonna punch it down and let it get puffy again.”
“What the hell for?”
“I don’t know. Just ’cause. Anyway, do that, then we get a big stick, right? And we roll the goo flat, using some of the extra wheat powder so it doesn’t adhere to the stick, then… Oh! Then fold the goo back up, put it into a container, and then cook that over a fire for several hours and then eat that.”
“… Why don’t we just cut off a section of the cow and eat that instead?”
“Yeah, that’s probably easier.”

Seriously, how did anyone figure this out?
