When the final scores were announced, the crowd held its collective breath—and then erupted.
Charlotte, Queen of Kale, Empress of Low-Calorie Delights, had come in second.
Just a hair—a literal decimal point—behind the reigning Michelin goddess, Selena.
But this time, no one cried foul. No shady glances at the judges. No whispering about favoritism or rigged scores. Because Charlotte was really authoritative in the field of healthy food. Healthy, low calorie, delicious, this is Charlotte's synonym.
Even the snarkiest judge—had actually said nice things.
