When the big day came, you realized that your classmate was right. There were a lot of food choices! Everyone was excited when the long wait was cut short when the announcer said, “Time to eat kids!” All of you run to the food section. Your classmates filled their plates with varied dishes. However, you chose to take this slowly and took a few scoops of some dishes. While you all were eating peacefully, one of your classmates was eating a lot of food continuously without checking it.
