I go into the long dissertation. It serves two purposes: First, it educates them if they choose to listen, and B, if they don't listen, it punishes them for being ignorant. Either way I win.

And, BTW, I consider Type 2 to be the "bad" kind. At least with type 1 you have a shot at eating pretty much anything.
