And they are off and racing!
The green beans jump out of the cullinary BFF ( Best Friend Forever) gate first. They are in peak condition so its no wonder they are the favourites to win the Served Plate. They are strongly handicapped though, carrying up to almost one quarter of the plate area, so they could just as easily be has beens. Its a strong field, any vegetable’s race.
They are all approaching tongs straight now and here come the carrots just look at them go, orange, sleek and sweet, rapidly catching up to the beans. The peas are lagging behind, some are even straying off the course, I don’t think they can recover, escapees.
The green beans and the carrots are neck and neck now. Its too close to call as they go over the finish line. Its going to be a photo finish.
Its the carrots! The winner of this years Served Plate is the carrots.
