Summary
On their first day of kindergarten, kids named after spices—Cinnamon, Ginger, Saffron, and Nutmeg—brought special lunches from their homes. When Salt said Saffron's curry looked and smelled funny, Saffron got upset. But second-grade helpers Basil and Rosemary reminded everyone, “Don’t yuck someone’s yum.” Salt said sorry, and Saffron was happy. The kids then shared stories about their favorite foods, learning to appreciate each other's lunches. From then on, everyone celebrated their different foods, making the classroom a friendly place where all cultures were valued.
