(Noun) A phrase for the disappointment that immediately crosses your mind upon realizing that Edmund Pevensie greatly exaggerated the taste of the candy known as, Turkish Delight.
When you finally taste the candy that made Edmund Pevensie betray his siblings, only to realize that it’s not nearly as delightful or delectable as portrayed. It is indeed a Turkish De-Lie, the LaCroix of confectionary creations.
“I was expecting the taste of Turkish Delight to change my life, but instead I tasted a Turkish De-Lie!”
“It looks so juicy, so sweet, so delicious…. But it’s just a sugar coated Turkish De-Lie.”
Hym "I don't see a problem with living a lie. The lie I live is that I'm a quiet and humble wage slave but the reality is I'm one of the greatest writers, comedians, thinkers of all time! Internationally famous. There are movies, songs, and television shows about me. Not humble at all. A genius. Actually, I spoke once and I'm pretty sure I saw a mountain move. Hahaha! Ok. That last one was a bit of a fib but the rest is accurate. You do seem right about the frustration thing though. Jordan does seem pretty frustrated about living a lie. He thought he was the profound one but really it was HYM! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
