Philosophy of Food | Monday, 4th period

Hannibal welcomed everyone to class just a little more studiously calm than usual. And with wet hair. Swimming to school had not been in his plans. Still, he was determined to fulfill his obligation.


"Good afternoon. I hope you made it here without too much problem. Today we continue our discussion of what is and isn't food, and how our preferences are formed."

He waved toward the table behind him, which held pairs of dishes this time. "We've got an assortment of foods and beverages today. You may choose only one from each pair - you cannot have both. You may choose neither, if you prefer. But in any case, you must explain your choice. Why do you prefer the option you've chosen - taste? Nostalgia? Curiosity? Feel free to debate with each other as well, and ask each other or me questions. Remember, there are no wrong answers - it's reasoning and thought we're looking for."

Aaaand, just like that, approving head-Iggy was back to shaking his head and facepalming in dismay, especially after the comments about the head's nutrition, because Prompto wasn't even hesitating going for the pan-fried salmon.

"Yeah, again, presentation," he offered. "I kind of tend to avoid food that's sort of looking back at me."

He was a little disappointed, though, that it didn't taste much like Kenny's Salmon that you get at the Crow's Nest, but too much of that stuff was just a heart attack waiting to happen (which was, argueably, why it was so delicious).

"And we're back to not eating food that looks like the animal it was," Hannibal said. "That's a common theme for many people. Plausible deniability."
