What Mashed Potatoes Taste Like

As Amy is halfway through her mashed potatoes at supper, she suddenly looks up and says, "I finally figured out what mashed potatoes taste like! Hamsters!"

Me: What?

Amy: Mashed potatoes taste like hamsters! I couldn't figure out what it was, but it just hit me!

Me: How do you know what hamsters taste like?

Amy: K, well, you know how your sense of tongue is like your smell? Like stuff tastes like how it smells, so hamsters smell like pet stores, so I, like, use my tongue sense to taste a pet store, which is hamsters, AND THAT'S WHAT THIS TASTES LIKE! But it doesn't smell like that, so that's weird. Whatever. Oh, yeah, and when I look at the pepper shaker, it makes me think of fish food, and that's in a pet store, too. Isn't that weird?

And she continued to eat.
