Chibodees-girls asks: Hello Riddler, I was wondering what your favourite dinner usually consists of? And, mondaydeleriumandthesmilepatrol asks: Oh wise one, I beseech thee, can you share with us what is your favourite dish? You could even make it a riddle!
Anything not consumed inside Arkham. Surely there has to be one inmate that isn't actually being punished for insanity of the criminal variety? Feeding slop to those with legitimate problems has to be banned by some kind of government agency. Then again, once you've seen Killer Croc eat, your own food is the least of your worries. Do you know what happens when a crocodile vomits? The entire body is involved - usually in the form of a massive muscle contraction and head twitching. Of course, Killer Croc isn't strictly crocodilian, but in some areas he makes quite a spirited effort to be as like his namesake as possible. I suspect the Arkham staff load the food with as many empty calories as possible, because they know no one in the main dining hall will be able to finish their servings. Outside of the institution it's pretty pointless to have favourites; meals for a criminal on the lam, even when holed up in a fairly secure base, tend to depend on what's available and whether anybody in the gang can cook. It doesn't help that some of my previous hires had rather refined tastes. Kel, for example, was used to the finest French cooking and temporarily found herself doing some soul-searching the night Echo made grilled cheese sandwiches.
