Would you like old or young Gouda cheese and wholegrain bread or plain white?

Alas, it doesn't have the intended effect. The squirrels seem to think it's an amusement park ride, and after getting tossed off and staggering dizzy for a few moments, climb right back up in an apparent case of "Ohhh! That was fun! Do it again!"

I could buy such a thing for my cat; that would give the birds more of a fair chance to grab some food, before she does.
