Frogs are edible and, in fact, expensive.

We found a live roach in a salad at our (previously) favorite upscale restaurant. Their response was insufficient, and we never went back, even though we knew the general manager.
They went out of business not too many months later.
It’s “organic”!
Why the fuss!
My sister ordered a salad at the local Quiznos. When she took off the plastic cover I noticed a small live cricket hop out. We captured it and let it go outside in the grass. We figured the salad was fresh, at least.
Protein is good for you.
My SIL used to have a frog get into her washing machine every night. She’d take him outside, go back to the basement, do the laundry, and next day there he’d be in the washing machine again.
She died unexpectedly a couple of years ago and my brother never bothered to take out the frog. The frog only lasted one load.
Old joke:
Irate customer: “Waiter! What’s this fly doing in my soup?”
Waiter (takes a look): “Apparently, he’s doing the backstroke.”
In one of the old Abe Lincoln movies there was a great scene where a young Lincoln and his dad visited this old lady in a log cabin up in the hills. She offered them each a bowl of porridge and they accepted. As they were eating and talking, Abe looked in horror as he saw a small frog’s legs dangling from the spoon his dad was about to put in his mouth (great shot, with each leg astraddle the edge). As tactfully as he could, he frantically signaled his dad, to no avail. The camera turned to Abe’s face and you knew he watched his dad eat the spoonful, frog and all.
When they got outside, Abe told his dad he tried to warn him about the frog in the spoon. His dad said that he knew the frog was there, but if he made a scene about it, it would embarrass the old lady, and he didn’t want to do that.
Probably Hollywood hype, but it was a great way to get across how much class the old man had.
Appears to be a toad rather than a frog.
No creo
Looks like the toad croaked after eating some of that egg yolk.
The diner should have been concerned about those chunks of mystery meat.
Nice touch with the folk, though. Composition is key.
“I toad the server I wanted a pickle with my salad, NOT a pickerel ...”
You like organic? That’s organic.
