It’s what’s for dinner
From Charli Mills at the Carrot Ranch is this week’s challenge.
September 9, 2021, prompt: In 99 words (no more, no less), write a story about the cooking show. It can be any cooking show, real or imagined. Who is there? What happens? Make it fun or follow a disaster. Go where the prompt leads!
It’s what’s for dinner
Everyone wrote about the zombie apocalypse, but no one really believed it could happen.
Surprise!
I won’t bore you with viral genetics; I’ll just say that as SARS-CoV-2 continued to mutate over 103 years, the infected – 94% of the population – didn’t suffer the same as their ancestors, but instead became zombies.
A world of 10.8 billion zombies, all of them interested in different culinary traditions because there’re only so many ways to cook human flesh.

Brains whipped or pureed with just a hint of lemon and salt and topped with drizzle of cilantro crema and one needs nothing else.

Fun take on one of the shows I watch. Though I turn a blind eye to some of the celerity guest judges… All of the cooking shows could stand to move just a tad faster. If they don’t – I chop them!

I agree about the speed of the shows and some of the celebrity judges. I like some of them (hello Alex Guarnaschelli!) and others are just annoying. Beat Bobby Flay is good because it’s quick.
