Just a challenge he must overcome

"Horrible" was an understatement to describe Penny's cooking.

The food Penny prepared was inedible. It was not food. Everyone who took their first bite either hunched over or froze in horror. Each dish was either too bitter, too salty, too sweet, too spicy—or simply all of the above.

It reminded everyone of the saying, "Never judge a book by its cover." It applied perfectly to the food prepared by Penny.

Her cooking was traumatizing.

Meanwhile, Penny was all smiles, watching everyone tear up with each bite. She interpreted their reactions as a sign of good food. After all, she used to take big bites before swallowing whenever she enjoyed something.

"Hehe." She giggled, pleased that everyone was "enjoying" it, though she thought their tears were a little over the top. "Do you want more?"
