"Good morning!" Anakin blared through the microphone. "An essential skill of a camper is the ability to feed yourself over a campfire--BEAKER, GET AWAY FROM THE CAMPFIRES."

There was slightly charred sounding apologetic meeping as Beaker moved away from one of the two campfires that had been carefully set up in the park. There were rickety looking folding tables arranged nearby the fires with cutting boards, knives, bowls, and other ~~moddable~~ kitchen items nearby. There was, however, no power. Everything would have to be chopped and grated and opened from a can by hand.

"Today, you will be paired up and asked to feature one of two different sets of menu items," Anakin continued. "And then you will present them to our esteemed panel of judges: Summer, Hannibal, Peebee, and Vette." He pointed to the judges. "Your meal must be cooked over the campfire. We have an array of other ingredients--" he pointed to a pantry and set of mini fridges that Beaker was now standing near, so expect that to spontaneously fall over any minute now, "--for you to use to supplement your original ingredients, but you must use the three ingredients we give you." He took a deep breath. "Please don't give the judges food poisoning, and remember that presentation matters. Listen for your names!"

Tip felt that having spent half a year living on her own at age 11 would give her an advantage in this particular event. Sure, she'd mostly lived on vending machine food during that time, and she'd had Boov ingenuity to rely on, even if J.Lo hadn't known a blessed thing about human dietary needs. Still.

". . . Do you think the tomato and marshmallows need to be in the same part of the meal? Or can we make an entree and a dessert?"

"At least keep them separate," Breq agreed. "Tomato and hot dog should work. Just fry them together?"

"Throw in some garlic and onion and that'll be awesome," Tip said. "Though that sounds like it'd be taking the easy way out. Same with doing s'mores for dessert."

"Is there something wrong with taking the easy way out?" Breq asked. "We could make barbecue skewers with the hotdog, onion and some pepper, make a tomato salsa and then bake the marshmallows with chocolate on top to turn them into small pastries."

She wasn't a great cook, by any means, but she had had to prepare food that wouldn't upset her officers before.
