Hercule Poirot: Cheese

Title: Cheese
Fandom: Hercule Poirot
Rating: G

"'Astings what is this that is trying to escape from my refrigerator?” Hercule Poirot demanded, closing the refrigerator door with an expression of disgust.

“It’s a cheese,” Captain Hastings replied.  “I thought you’d enjoy it.  I’ve been letting it mature.”

“There is cheese that has matured, and there is an offence to the olfactory nerves.  This is the offence and will be sharing its unpleasant perfume with all the other ingredients within the refrigerator.  Kindly dispose of it with immediate effect.”

“If you insist, Poirot.”

“And please ensure it is taken outside and is not put into my kitchen bin.”

Lol, credit to Hastings for being so thoughtful--but the little gray cells don't get along with the odor! ^.^ I would absolutely trust Poirot's taste in everything, including cheese!

Very cute!

Hastings knows Poirot likes tisanes and syrup de cassis so why not stinky cheese? It's an easy mistake. I do sympathize with taking it ALL THE WAY out.
