Ianto laughed at the look that Sulu gave him at the description of the laverbread. "Oi," he said, looking mock offended, "you're Japanese, you have absolutely no right to give me that sort of a look over anything, especially seaweed. I know for a fact that there are plenty of stranger, more disgusting things out there that I could be trying to force on you, thanks very much."
He smiled at Sulu's statement about the produce. "No, I can't imagine that 3D chess would be able to grow produce. Or do very much of anything else at all, all things considered," he teased. "Still, though, that's admirable. Being able to grow your own food, and all. I mean, sure, you guys have replicators and all, but. Does everyone have that? And beside that, I don't really understand the logic behind eating the fake, not-quite-right replicated produce when with a little effort, you could have the real thing."
"I mean," he said, munching on his onion ring, "I understand that being out on a mission like you are is a little different, but I'm sure that people who have much more of an opportunity to grow their own food don't. It's like that now, even."
