FepGerkins

FepGerkins are animals in the land of Fep.
The Fwah Ah consider them "dirty" and are conditioned to despise FepGerkins: thinking of the FepAftertaste causes a physical reaction, and seeing one makes a Fwah Ah pale and woozy. The odor of FepGerkins sets off the gag reflex. A common dialogue goes:
:I'd rather eat the refuse of my worst enemy than eat FepGerkins.
:Oh yeah? I'd rather poke myself in the eyes with six inch rusty spikes than eat a lousy FepGerkin.
:Well, I'd rather eat my own head-innards, after they'd been sucked out through my eye sockets by a great naturally occurring vacuum, than eat FepGerkins.
:I'd rather have a fullbody massage from a servant girl named Hela than eat FepGerkins.
:Huh?
If a Fwah Ah wants to insult another, a popular saying is, "Your mother eats FepGerkins!" Youngsters talking about FepGerkins is considered very naughty. The controversial Fwah Ah comedian, Loody Kincaid, once performed an entire live routine of FepGerkin jokes; of course it was an adults-only performance and was banned in most towns.
Fep had a surplus of FepGerkins, followed by a terrible drought in Fep and Fwah Ah that caused sky-rocketing inflation and a shortage of FwaGerkins and FepGerkins, threw the land into a panic, raised prices and dropped interest rates.
The Fwah Ah dreaded the odious FepAftertaste, but when the FwaHerds wandered away, they realized they would have to choke them down (and most likely vomit a few times after eating the first three or four) or face certain starvation.
