Ned would like to share his lunch (figuratively speaking, of course) with his many friends, because it illustrates something he has long championed: taking a long time to eat. In this, Ned was aided because his lunch consisted of coarsely-chopped, blanched vegetables--carrots, broccoli, red and green peppers, red onions--, coleslaw, a small ripe tomato pilfered from a friend's garden, a little ceviche made of bits of bay shrimp and pollock, and so reasonably sustainable, and a small apple. This was accompanied by a modest glass of Trader Joe's vegetable juice. Now, the virtue of this meal was that, in addition to being extremely nutritious, it took Ned a long time to physically chew the food, unlike an average "fast-food" meal consisting of fries and a burger, or a slice of pizza.
Ned once again urges his many friends to remember his adage, "eat what likes you, not necessarily what you like."
