"Carter. Where's the sweet potatoes?"
"Right there, sir."
Jack stared at the brownish-black mass in the bowl in front of him. He sniffed it suspiciously. He was so not eating that.
He'd had rest of the meal catered, but Sam had insisted on making the sweet potatoes. From an old family recipe.
"Sam, sweet potatoes aren't supposed to be that color."
"I do not believe they should be of that consistency either."
"Come on guys, don't knock it until you've tried it." She looked at the colonel expectantly.
"I don't think so." Jack looked at Daniel.
Daniel gulped, stuck his spoon in the bowl, and pulled out some of the gooey substance. He hesitated, then at Carter's pleading look stuck it in his mouth. He immediately blanched and made a bee-line for the bathroom.
"At least the rest of it's edible." He mumbled, a little too loudly. Again.
"Ouch!"
