   I just ran a search to see who else might have used this tasty lil   
   couplet.   
      
   It seems that nobody other than FZ ever said "Join the March and eat my   
   Starch" and nobody other than FZ and some foodies talking about food ever   
   said much about eating starch that was considered search-worthy.   
      
   The phrase seems to have originated at the end of Farther O'Blivion   
   (where in at least one concert FZ said "Join the March and eat my Starch   
   - whatever the hell that means") and then resurfaced as the name of a   
   short instrumental (Stockholm 1973) that was used a few times in concert   
   after that, usually sneaking into medleys made from fragments of Yellow   
   Snow and Greggary Peccary.
