Anyone who's read Terry Pratchett knows that rats on a stick are a well-beloved street food in Ankh-Morpork!
Among the dwarves, anyway. Most humans seem to prefer a sausage inna bun, though the way Dibbler's food is described, I think the dwarves might be better off.
Got a have ketchup though.
On a King’s ship they’d grill them and serve them with onion sauce.
I’ve got a recipe.
Babbington looked wretchedly from one to the other, licked his lips and said, ‘I ate your rat, sir. I am very sorry, and I ask your pardon.’
‘Did you so?’ said Stephen mildly. ‘Well, I hope you enjoyed it. Listen, Jack, will you look at my list, now?’
'He only ate it when it was dead,’ said Jack.
‘It would have been a strangely hasty, agitated meal, had he ate it before,’ said Stephen.
I see you are a man of culture.
A glass of wine with you sir!
