Do you remember the quote from Shrek “Onions have layers”? Donkey and Shrek were marching off to save Fiona from her tower in order to get Shrek’s swamp back. Donkey was asking Shrek why he didn’t just force the King to give them the swamp, and in response Shrek said that “Ogres are like onions”. Ogres have layers just like onions do! In the movie Donkey asks Shrek why he isn’t like a cake instead since everyone likes cakes and cakes also have layers. The more memorable line is about cakes, but almost everyone forgets about the parfaits. In the Musical “Shrek” Donkey asks about Parfaits, “Have you ever met a person, you say ‘let’s go get some parfait’ they say “hell no, I don’t like no parfait’?” which is much more memorable if you’ve seen the musical. With all these different versions of Shrek it is so hard to pick a favorite. So, my question is: Do you prefer cakes, onions, or parfaits? And which part of the scene do YOU remember most clearly?
