Toast
"Mermaids," said Squid, nibbling still on the squarely shaped Edible. "Can you give me a name for this Different Flavor?" He plucked several spongy pieces from the Edible and distributed them to the Wisest of the Mermaids.
"This flavor is Buttery," said one mermaid.
"This flavor is Burnt," said the second.
"Nay, this flavor is of the Risen kind," said the third and last.
"Which of these is it?" asked Squid.
"It is them all." decided the first mermaid. "It is called Toast."
Knowing his time of discovery was over, Squid consumed the last of the toast and swam away.
