Beschrijving
The Hunt for the Pea (previously Boy Puts both Hands into the Soup Bowl). A miserly farmer gives his farmhands poor food. Or, a clergyman (several soldiers) is invited to dinner by a miserly friend (housewife). The soup is mostly water with hardly any peas (barley, rice). One of the farmhands (the clergyman, one of the soldiers) takes off his jacket and shirt. Someone asks why, and he explains that he is going to reach into the dish to look for the pea.
