Reminds me of the great Dilbert strip where Dilbert sets out to make
gazpacho and ends up substituting many ludicrous ingredients with
accompanying funny rationalization (in geek terms) for all the items he
doesn't have... at the end it looks like steaming cheese bricks.  Dogbert
asks, "Is this supposed to be served hot?"... Dilbert responds with a
"You're thinking of...<insert food name I forgot>"

Hilarious
