@ Ugh, I don't feel well. And can lichens even do that?

You turn into a lich

Well, we didn't see the actual death, but I'm guessing it was a newt or a grid bug or something equally embarassing. I mean, to a plant, even caterpillars are scary!

Caption spoils this one.

I know. I'm really bad at DD captions. Why not have a comments competition for a better one?

"YASD: Yet Another Salad Death" So lichen is not your typical salad ingredient, but it is vegetarian!

I think this would work much better without a caption.

Agreed. Still good though.

Just noticed the ``You turn into a lich'' message. Funny how that was chopped off.
