Inspired by Avi's Vowelburger™ Riddle here
The local Vowelburgers™ restaurant developed some extraordinary side dishes as a perfect complement for their burgers. Like most of the burgers, the top and bottom layer are fixed, but it's the middle layer that makes all the difference. Can you figure out the ingredients?
