Yoshi's Pudding

Yoshi was feeling a bit down in the dumps. He had been hanging out with Mario and Luigi all day, but they seemed too busy to pay much attention to him. As he wandered through the Mushroom Kingdom, he came across a field of beautiful yellow flowers. "Hmm, these look like they'd make a tasty treat," he thought to himself. He gobbled up a few handfuls of the flowers and suddenly felt a surge of energy. "Wow, that really hit the spot!" he exclaimed. But as he continued on his way, he felt a strange sensation in his stomach. "Uh-oh," he groaned, "I think I ate too many flowers." He stumbled through the Mushroom Kingdom, moaning and groaning, until he finally collapsed at the feet of Mario and Luigi. "Yoshi, are you okay?" Mario asked, concerned. "I don't feel so good," Yoshi replied weakly. "I think I need something sweet to settle my stomach." Luigi quickly whipped up a batch of sweet egg pudding, and Yoshi gobbled it up eagerly. "Mmm, this hits the spot," he said, feeling much better. "Thanks, Luigi! You're a lifesaver."
