Definder - what does the word mean?

What is take leave?

Similar to "Take it or leave it"(i.e. "this is your only option") but with a more sardonic edge.

I think this comes from a special edition of the Gilbert Shelton cartoon strip "Fat Freddie's Cat", in which the eponymous character narrowly escapes a genetically modified death at the hands of a mad, well, furrier.

Kid: What is there for dinner?
Dad: I'm cooking lasagne
Kid: wailing I don't like that
Dad: Well, take it or leave it, mein furrier
