Salad Daze (comic story)
Summary
Peri is trying to get the Doctor on a diet, and so she serves simple salads. As Peri tries to get him to eat the meal she notices a strange device nearby. The Doctor calls this a Personal Reality Warp which sends the user to a reality based on their thoughts. As he leaves, he tells Peri not to touch it.
Not believing what the Doctor has said, Peri is sent into a reality based on Lewis Carroll's work, in a woodland. A rabbit looking quite like the Doctor rushes past her, calling that he is late. Peri walsk along and finds two figures named Dum and Dee underneath a tree. She realises that these are turnips, despite the pair arguing the contrary. Peri runs off as they try to tell her the story of the "Walnut and the Cauliflower,"
After slowly treading past the sleeping Red Cabbage, Peri ends up at the dinner party of the Celery, the carrot and the small tomato. She accidentally drops a comment that she has eaten plenty of carrots, causing them to believe she is a murderer.
As Peri runs off she is caught by the Queen of Artichokes and sentenced to death. As the King and Knave of Spuds carry out the sentence and the rabbit runs past once more, Peri screams out that she will never eat vegetables again.
At that moment she is sent back to reality, in front of the Doctor. When the Doctor adds they should finish the salad, Peri suggests instead they eat Hamburgers and chips instead. As she leaves, the Doctor looks down at the reality warp, and smiles.
