I always say, When in romaine, do as the romaines do.
Friends, Romaines, croutons, lend me your salad tongs;
I come to devour Caesar, not to bury it.
The eating that men do lives after them,
The good is oft passed as gas from their bellies;
So let it be with Caesar.
The noble Chef Hath told you Caesar with Orange was ambitious;
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Caesar answer'd it.
Here, under leave of watercress,--
For the Chef is an honorable man;
So are they all, all honorable men,--
Come I to speak in the Food court.
It was my invention, faithful and just to me:
But the Chef says I was ambitious;
And the Chef is an honorable man.
I have wrought many salads out of Romaine and orange,
Whose croutons did the general Salad bowl fill:
Did this in myself seem ambitious?
When that the hungry have cried, Caesar hath filled them;
Ambition should be made of sterner stuff:
Yet The Chef says I was ambitious;
And The Chef is an honorable man.
You all did see that on the Lupercalia
He thrice presented me a Golden bowl of Salad,
Which I did thrice refuse: was this ambition?
Yet The Chef says I was ambitious;
And, sure, he is an honorable man.
I speak not to disprove what The Chef spoke,
But here I am to speak what I do know.
You all did love Caesar Salad once, not without Citrus:
What cause withholds you then to enjoy this taste?
O judgment, thou art fed to brutish beasts,
And men have lost their reason. Bear with me;
My heart is in the Trash bin there with my Caesar Salad,
And I must pause till it come back to me.
No disrespect intended to the Great Bard of Avon

The Lupercalia was an annual very ancient, possibly pre-Roman pastoral festival, held on February 15 to honor Faunus, god of fertility and forests.
Heehee, worked the first time, LOL
