It's People! The Caf food is People...

Today as i walk in the cafeteria i find that the main course today is people..er...chicken adobo. Only, adobo must be different here in Hawaii, for it said "Adobe". I don't know, but the name "Chicken Adobe" dosent sound too appetizing. Still, it makes more sence than the time that we had "Fish & chips and Fries" for lunch last week.
So Shem, Jeff (a fellow RA) and i were discussing how they came to the conclusion to make chicken adobe. We deicided it was closer to the real content anyway. I speculated that the food was all leftovers from the MTC (missionary training center) in provo, maybe Brazil. That would explain why they sent me with a large box labled "Hazardous Waste" when i flew from there to here. My theroy is that they take the trays and scoop the food into a sorting grate. This grate seperates the food according to weight and size. Kinda like how a coin sorter works. Shem figured this would explain why they have a collection of used retainers in the back of the cafeteria.
They then take the food mixes and come up with fun sounding names for them. The creativity shows there. It's sort of like Willy Wonka's Cafeteria back there. They catch the freshmen swimming in the lake of chocolate milk all the time. (when you see one just floating there, dont touch him.) I figured they would often sneak over to the wall paper to take a lick, but the wallpaper isnt flavored, it's just left over food stuck to the walls. One of them licks the wall, "Hmm, this part tastes like chicken!" Then it hit me! Thats why we had Chicken Adobe today, that's what it was! They took the spatual, scraped the chicken skin off the wall, wraped it around a hotdog, used scotch tape to keep it on, then deep fried the whole thing. Voila! Chicken Adobe is served! They pocked fish bones into mine so i'd never suspect it wasnt a real animal. Shem found his retainer from the MTC there, and Jeff found the medical braclet of a missing freshmen in his chocolate milk...
