Rat: The biggest city in Nigeria is trying to improve their economy by producing frozen waffles. Their logo is just the city's name. And to promote them, they're putting children's building blocks in each. Goat: Let's go. Rat: Let's go what? Goat: Let's go get Lagos logo eggo legos. Rat: Let's not.
