True!

Although, for a clearer comparison, it might help if I described what their normal food was.

From what I remember (it was about 20 years ago!), and ranked from their favourite to least favourite, the food mix consisted of:

  • Peanuts
  • Yellow flakes and green flakes (which I suspect started off as corn and peas)
  • Scratchy red things (similar size and shape to a chunky watch battery)
  • Scratchy brown things (similar shape but flatter than the red ones)
  • Dark brown stick things

I guess the closest food we have is dry cereal. If I just had a huge bowl of mixed dry cereal to communally eat from for the entire day, and then one day a whole lettuce was next to the bowl, I'd probably try to eat as much of it as I could before it was taken away too.
