Food for thought

Well this kinda knocks our vending machine into a cocked hat*: Google Daily Menus. I’ll have the Thai Beef Salad please.

* The game of Cocked Hat was similar to ninepins except that only three pins were set up, in triangular formation. It took its name from the three-cornered hat with the brim turned up (i.e. cocked) worn in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The expression implies a comparison between something in disarray after a defeat and the way in which pins are sent flying in a game of Cocked Hat.
