As is the assumption that it was Zoyd who went to the health food store to
buy the soda, or that it was delivered by magical pixies. Someone went
there, and of the two I'm willing to assert that it's more likely to have
been Prairie.

Isn't the whole Count Chocula, Froot Loops and Cheet-os thing just another
piece of the picture of how childish/childlike Zoyd really is?
