Celine's Thoughts
By Ms. Kinnikufan
Disclaimer: I don't own the characters. Shinji Saiyo does.
"Cooking is about abundance" is my philosophy. Ah'm pretty damn sure of my philosophy.
Cooking would be boring with creativity or risk. Hell, we would still be eating charred meat on a stick without it.
Ah'm greatly disappointed that abundance didn't win. Ah'm even more greatly disappointed in the close-mindedness of people.
What's wrong with frog fallopian tubes? They're not hard to swallow. They're very nutritious.
In a truly proper context, frog fallopian tubes ain't any weirder then other stuff that's considered "normal",
The meat we eat off chickens and cows is the muscle. Gelatin is made from pig bones or fat unless it is vegan style. Eggs come from the reproductive system of birds, they just ain't fertilized. Milk virtually comes from a cow's digestion process. The preservatives and artificial flavorings in food sure ain't natural.
The same people who consume those things won't consume frog fallopian tubes.
If Ah had a chance to do it over again, Ah'd still use frog fallopian tubes.
Damn, people are close-minded.
In mah household, eating was never boring. My ma once used pancakes to make sandwiches instead of bread. Pa once combined the styles of Russia and South Africa to make a tasty dish. I once tried chocolate covered ants in mah childhood. They taste kind of like chocolate covered popcorn.
My papa showed me that only abundance makes the best, tastiest, most amazing dishes.
Kiriko's philosophy is kind of sweet, Ah will admit. She is most definitely sincere about it, but that won't make the best dish.
Ah don't know what to make of Jan's philosophy, but he damn sure is fanatical about it. In fact, it blinded him during the noodle battle and helped him during the dessert battle.
He might have been the victor if they had gone into overtime. Ah don't know.
What Ah do know it that Ah'm going to stick to my philosophy no matter what.
As pa once said "It's better to be unique rather then perfect. Unique people always have more fun then the perfect people."
Abundance may have lost today, but at least didn't win the way Kiriko did-out of spite of an asshole judge.
