Is The Dessert Edible?

Lycster was rather hesitant to take a bite despite how delicious it looked. The suspicion they had was written all over their faces. To the people at the other end of the table, this was a common sight. Hence, the man with the beard and brown eyes assured them that it was safe to eat. 

"Let's put it that way, if we wanted to poison your food, why wait till dessert?" he declared with a chuckle. 

He was right, but what if?

"Well, you could be doing so to gain our trust, so that we would lower our guard," Vy pointed out. 

Usually, they did not get much push back after they stated their piece. This was a first for them. The three people tried hard to hide their disbelief. They were impressed. Seeing their quizzed expressions reassured Vy.
