Over the weekend, students decide to prepare something for everyone to eat together. They have a look in the fridge and realize they have a lot of different kinds of protein available: eggs, ham and chicken. Being undecided about what to cook, they decide to have a show of hands to see what the majority would be but it seems that it does not help the choice: a real chaos!

Morgan explains: the ham was bought 3 days ago before the chicken and the eggs, so it should be the first to be eaten and so on … Same conclusion about the vegetables that are stored in the fridge.

Margot organizes the fridge to help the group manage the food with the concept they all master by now: FIFO !
