- fra Roald Dahls THE BFG (Big Friendly Giant), netop filmatiseret af Steven Spielberg, der sandsynligvis ikke har dette meget Alice-agtige stykke dialog med, men måske faktisk!? - det er kæmpens kæmpekolleger, der spiser "human beans, ikke den store rare kæmpe selv:
"'Danes from Denmark is tasting ever so much of dogs,' the Giant went on.
'Of course,' Sophie said. 'They taste of Great danes.'
'Wrong!' cried the Giant, slapping his thigh. 'Danes from Denmark is tasting doggy because they is tasting of labradors!'
'Then what do the people of Labrador taste of?' Sophie asked.
'Danes,' the Giant cried, triumphantly. 'Great danes!'
'Aren't you getting a bit mixed up?' Sophie said."
