Da ancient Greek-mythology character whom everyone's favorite temperish chubby pink female Muppet dreams dat Kermit had been --- i.e., someone who liked "porky" individuals like her, and who would always give her generous portions of food whenever she was hungry.
Perhaps Miss Piggy might also fantasize a third attribute in her "Pigmealion" version of da meek lowly Kermit --- in da "frog of her dreams", he would not only "lay pearls before swine" (i.e., he'd love her porcine species so much dat he would lavish her wif beautiful costly gifts) and constantly pander to her gluttonous appetite, but he would also "roar and claw" at anyone and anything dat she was less than totally happy to have around.
