In the style of WPI, there will be no grade modifiers. However, NRs will not exactly have no record... There will also be no Ds.
A: Divinely delicious. I might have it at every opportunity.
B: Tasty, but not top of the list. I will eat it again.
C: Okay, but I won't likely have again freely on my own
NR: Technically should not even appear.

Morning Pastry Review and Tonight's Vegetable Experiment
This morning I had a Chocolate and Creme Tosade from Au Bon Pain. It was light, and true to the cashier's description, similar to a crossaint. The pastry was much more compact, so I didn't have to endure a whole lot of puffy lightness. That to me is worthless calories spent. CCT is very sweet. So sweet, in fact, I would probably not have it again. The end bites had a light sweetness to it but everything inside of that was a bit much. If not for the natural sweetness of the watermelon I bought with it and the (free from the office) Lipton decaf tea I had immediately after, I was thinking about brushing my teeth.
Calories: 250
Cost: $2.29 (exclusive of tax)
Calories per cent: 1.092
(I have no clue what this calories per cent ratio will mean... but I feel the need to further evaluate the data. If you can't create ratios and compare them, what is the point of having data?)
Overall grade: C
I bought frozen brussel sprouts without any idea of how I might prepare them, but I knew I could definitely get some Vitamin C I am lacking. Except for things like water melons and berries, I much prefer vegetables to fruit. Juice is too sugary tasting and too many calories. The mircowave does not seem to provide the right preparation methods, but, really, does it ever? A double boiler doesn't allow for much flavor and I didn't want to cook them in oil all the time. As much as I love the south (so far), cooking a vegetable in butter or lard a la Paula Deen seems a bit crazy to me. So I found this recipe but might instead wrap everything in aluminum foil. It might go along well with the grilled chicken.
