Turning wacky parenting into fodder?
Hello everybody.
A centerpiece of untouched delivery
napkins. We assumed Clive was turning his mother’s wacky parenting into
lunchtime fodder, but no—he was floating the idea. Did we think it was

Would you please tell me what the bold part means? Does it mean Clive was telling the story of his mother as a spice of lunchtime food?
Thanks ??
