Flavor factor analyses of nutmeg distributions show systematic deviations from Poisson behavior despite homogeneous squash. We recorded spice-triggered covariance profiles from the filling layer at sites along inferior lateral and medial custard horizons (Rombauer areas 14 and 25). Each covariance matrix showed 6 to 8 significant eigenslices. To investigate this behavior, we solved the Child equations for flavor propagation in homogeneous layered meringue-custard spaces. By introducing slight fruitilinear perturbations to the model, we show that there exists a critical value of the dimensionless Lemon number that determines the onset of flavor convection. We synthesize piesmograms for several important endmember systems. The synthetic piesmograms display soft peaks that stiffen when perturbed past the critical Lemon number, and significant waveform piefurcation at mid-custard reflectors.
