"Gooood morning, everyone!" Summer had been looking forward to this week in particular every since she stumbled across today's particular monstrosity, so you knew you were all in for a real treat, right? "Today, we're going to be asking the question: is it a crime to be extra?"

If it was, you might as well cuff her and take her away now, really.

"And," she added, "today's actually a more modern recipe, borne out of this century for a change, riding on that niche area of culinary interest that seems to really push the boundaries of excess and explore just how ridiculous you can get. It is a very involved recipe, so we'll definitely be walking through it together, but, before we get to that, we do have a quick and easy vintage recipe,, by special request," here, she was definitely throwing a smirk toward Stark ~~assuming he was there~~, "that we can just make and let set while we work the main recipe because, hoo boy, guys, it is something, let me tell you.

"So, without further ado," for dramatic effect, she reached over to grab a nice package of roast beef and plopped it onto the counter in front of her, along with a bag of chocolate chips, "let's get started first on our beef fudge."

And that was the lighter recipe...

Clare took a careful, tiny nibble. "It's really good," she said. "Why is it really good?"

"I don't know," Stark said. "It's very confusing. Meat isn't meant to go in desserts!"

"The rest have been vile," Clare said. "We haven't been wrong about that."

"They have," Stark agreed. "So why isn't this one?"

This was a mystery that might plague him forever.

"Should we try the other? Or seems edible just... excessive."

"I don't know why the macaroni is involved at all," Clare admitted.

To make it Extra! Obviously.

Stark shrugged. "Some of these recipes I think ingredients are added just because they can be. Whether or not they should be. But at least the flavors should be mostly alright? I hope."

"It feels a bit like mortar?" Claire said. "To hold the sausage and eggs together."

Stark considered that for a moment. "That could be why. Or it could have just been someone deciding to throw something odd into their breakfast. And then turning their breakfast into... this. I hope it tastes better than mortar."

All of these ingredients were fine on their own and he was rather fond of pancakes at this point.

"Well, we were all fooled by the beef fudge," Clare said. "Maybe this is also secretly delicious?"

"Unless this is terrible and the fudge was here to confuse us."

Secretly tasty beef fudge as a way to lull them into a false sense of security! That was diabolical. Summer wouldn't do that, would she?

"This one seems like it will just be a lot." A lot of what was the question.

"It's so tall and scary," Clare agreed.

"It will only be scarier cold," Stark decided. "Best to just try it now."

He picked up a fork to do just that. Unsurprisingly, the pancake-covered breakfast and mac&cheese tower was, in fact, a bit much. More than a bit.

"It's...a lot."
