Food Funnies

I couldn't copy this one from FB, but it was basically "food funnies meets world-class parenting":

 

The poster had gotten tired of the same ol' "clean your rooms" fight with his teens, so he went to the store and bought a small bag of black "forbidden" rice. He scattered it in their rooms (under their beds and in the corners of their closets) then in the course of what was apparently a normal parental rant, lifted up and threw some debris in the first kid's room and discovered...rodent turds! A quick inspection of the other kid's room turned up the same evidence of vermin (gasp!) and the two grossed-out kids have become militant neat freaks. :P

Not exactly a "funny" in the usual sense, but it probably fits better here than elsewhere on the site...
