Le crunch

Here we see a prime example of the "mouse and garnish" phenomenon. 
As anyone familiar with cats will know, they dispatch their prey swiftly and cleanly with a 'killing bite' to the back of the neck, thus severing the spinal cord and causing instant death. It's a hardwired reflex action so decisive that any sort of foliage that happens to get in the way is trapped as the jaws snap shut. So it's not unusual to find a tuft of grass accompanying the mouse when it is brought back to the lair kitchen. In this case a whole strand of ivy has arrived avec souris just like those amusing little leafy garnishes we find on the side of our restaurant plates and don't usually bother to eat.
Bon appetit Tablet!
