Spell/grammer check AND do a slow proofread of your messages. Also, PLEASE give more for the taste_msg then 'The %t is somewhat good.' That is the message used when someone tastes it, so it should be pretty descriptive. Oh, and lastly, please provide a description for your tasty urban treats. :)

I'm not too sure I did everything right, but I am sure one of you will point out if I didn't.
I've never made and baked goods with "Little green flecks" despite how good I am around a kitchen.
Although...... Hrmmm... I wonder if my friend still has that "special" cook book... I got a call to make!
Munchies!
