[Danny looks more than a little stressed and tired today. He is slumped down against the back of his chair as he opens the video feed.]

So... this is kind of a funny request. But does anyone have any advice on learning how to cook? Since it kind of turns out that that's something I need to learn. Long story.

Yeah! They have all kinds of weird diets, here in the future, right? There's gotta be one without salt! [There are SO MANY weird diets, Danny!! He doesn't get it!!!] No it's really not. I mean, I can cook a little? I'm better at baking.

I can ask dad if he could show you anything? He's a good cook!

[Danny might be pretty experienced now at explaining the modern world to friends dislocated from other times, but he wasn't touching that one. He didn't get it either.]

Yeah, and people have to have figured out how to work around it.

[He sighs.] But I have the feeling some foods just aren't going to the same. Goodbye fries and chips I guess.

Seriously? That would be really helpful if he could. I'm honestly not really sure where to start.

[He's already explained so much! He deserves to rest on this one insane subject.]

Yeah, sorry buddy. I mean- I can see if I can make a synthetic salt? But it...it definitely wouldn't be the same.

[He grins, because at least this is something he CAN do!]

Sure thing!! I'm sure he'll have some ideas for you.

[schrodingersghost]

Thanks for the offer, but with the way my lucks been lately I wouldn't be surprised if fake salt did something even worse.

I hope so. I never thought something would be more annoying than the iron thing, but I think I found it.

[droptheious]

...Yeah, okay, fair. You can't really not trust this place not to punish you for trying to find a loophole.

This is a pretty big one. At least the iron thing didn't affect what you were eating beyond how you cooked stuff.

[schrodingersghost]

Here's hoping this is the last thing that shows up. As far as not being able to touch things, anyway.

[Danny knew better than to hope for no new powers or changes. ]

[droptheious]

I hope so too, Bud. You've been through enough.
