“Fishless Chips” for SOCS, July 18, 2025

I received the below new lunch menu from a local restaurant :


A NEW
 LUNCH MENU is being offered from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm

  • Fish & Chips with Coleslaw
    Burritos ( Shrimp or Fish)
    Chimichangas (Shrimp or Fish)
    Tacos Shrimp or Fish
    Large Salad with  Shrimp

          This was my mental reply to their message:

          Fishless Chips

          Never have I had a wish
          for any kind of seafood dish––
          fillet of flounder or tuna knish.
          The only menu I find delish
          is piscine-free, served with a flourish.
          So if this bod you wish to nourish,
          just french fry spuds and skip the fish!

          The prompt for SOCS is “chip.”

          I received the below new lunch menu from a local restaurant via email immediately before reading the daily prompt, which was “Flourish.”  It was inevitable that the two would merge.

          is, I fear, devoid of fish.https://dailypost.wordpress.com/prompts/flourish/

          Short and to the Point

          Eat to live or live to eat?
          Chewing’s a thing that can’t be beat!

          Eschewing chewing can’t be done,
          for masticating’s just too fun.
