Less obvious puns are the best anyway, for maximum groan-inducing. For sense and pun, you could call it “Dangerously Raisins”, which would render the pun only obvious when spoken aloud.

He lives on the moon and has a pencil for a nose, which he uses to draw on a peeved blackboard. I'm surprised I haven't sung you the theme song, but I'm sure I'll correct that with time.

And mm, it must be a stiff=corpse bit, but I've never heard the phrase "stiff risotto", and the internet only seems to know it as the book title. A... sticky risotto? A sieved risotto? I like “Death by (Arti)Choking” a lot.

"Shallot through the Heart" "Dangerous Li-raisins" "Death By (Arti)Choking" "Curry-age Under Fire" I think that "A Stiff Risotto" refers to the English slang "stiff", meaning corpse. Can risotto be stiff? I'm not sure. Mr Squiggle?

“Shallot through the Heart”
“Dangerous Li-raisins”
“Death By (Arti)Choking”
“Curry-age Under Fire”

Perhaps I should work out a comprehensive Mr Squiggle presentation, to hand to everyone, to make sure nothing else is missing? I <i>must</i> have told you about Gus, though. I find it wonderful that "sarcastic snails" are apparently a recurring theme in children's television.
