Derf's Grotto

[Susie924]

Here's the game: the world has ended. Everything's destroyed. Gone forever. The only thing left is you -- and the mansion, apartment, shack or house you live in right now. It's pretty sad.

But this apocalypse has a silver lining: somehow you have a magic refrigerator. This brilliant genius of an appliance holds a constant supply of salt, pepper, oil, flour and sugar -- and four other foods. That's where you come in. You get to choose those.

You can't choose just anything, though. Your four foods have to be simple ingredients, not composed dishes. Lettuce, not Caesar salad. Ground beef, not Chef Boyardee Beefaroni. Cream cheese, not the New York Cheesecake from Ruby Tuesday. Also, you can be vaguely concerned with health, but you don't need to fret if your four foods don't contain the daily recommended amount of selenium. It's the apocalypse -- you should treat yo'self.

One last thing: you'll get the same four foods for the rest of your life. So you should choose foods that you can combine into enough different dishes to keep you satisfied for the next several decades. Be ambitious! You'll have plenty of time to cook now that your office is a pile of rubble.
