Carrots and Tofu and Llamas "oh my!"

(Dear readers...I know I wrote a poem already about coffee tasting like a horse...but this poem was inspired by a friend who sadly over-salted his vegetables and claimed they tasted like a petting zoo. So here is a poem in honor of his seasoning snafu.)

We like to cook our food
But cooking can be hard
We want to make it tasty
While avoiding too much lard

Measurements are tricky
"Is it a teaspoon, or a cup?"
So many things to think about
It's easy to screw up




You might burn the tofu
Which makes you want to curse
Or over-salt the vegetables
Which is by far the worst!

It makes them taste like llamas
And who wants to eat those?
Not a vegetarian
But then again, who knows?
