I fell in a vat of chocolate,
I fell in a vat of chocolate,
I fell in a vat of chocolate,
La dee doo, la dee doo dum day

What'd you do when you fell into the chocolate?
What'd you do when you fell into the chocolate?
What'd you do when you fell into the chocolate?
La dee doo, la dee doo dum day

I yelled 'fire' when I fell into the chocolate,
I yelled 'fire' when I fell into the chocolate,
I yelled 'fire' when I fell into the chocolate,
La dee doo, la dee doo dum day

Why'd you yell fire when you fell into the chocolate?
Why'd you yell fire when you fell into the chocolate?

Well, I just yelled "Fire" because no one would come if I yelled 'CHOCOLATE!!!'
La dee doo, la dee doo dum day....

If you want on or off this list, please let me know!
This has come about after much badgering by you, my friends and extended family...

What is the topic of the list? If it is things Vietnamese then you can certainly put arthurus on it.

I must admit to dumping a bit of the stuff on my food occasionally, although in my case it is the slightly more robust Thai version "nam pla." I would imagine that the poor fellow who fell into the vat was overcome by chlorine... lots of Chloride ions in this stuff!

[mhking]

What is the topic of the list?

Suitably bizarre or idiotic stories that pass through from time to time.

[TexasRepublic]

Ah, "Secret Sauce". Yum.

[arthurus]

slightly more robust Thai version "nam pla.

Nuoc Mam comes in various concentrations and formulations, some of which will lift paint at 6 inches away. The commercial grade is pretty thin but the homemade stuff has real character.
