force-feed them celery instead

[Frieda]

A chthonian symbol, celery was said to have sprouted from the blood of Kadmilos, father of the Cabers, chthonian divinities celebrated in Samothrace, Lemnos and Thebes. The spicy odour and dark leaf colour encouraged this association with the cult of death. In classical Greece celery leaves were used as garlands for the dead, and the wreaths of the winners at the Isthmian Games were first made of celery before being replaced by crowns made of pine. According to Pliny the Elder (Natural History XIX.46), in Archaia the garland worn by the winners of the sacred contest at Nemea was also made of celery.

that's the right approach - and... when they start crying or shouting, it's still possible to make another use of that stick.

I like celery because it looks cool growing, and without it a Mire poix would be little more than chopped onion and carrots ; )
