Special Notes about the 2021 Puzzle Challenge: To be considered for Fastest Solver points, you must verify your solution with Certitude. Finders will receive Top Finder points when submitting Found It logs to the cache page. All "point" scoring is arbitrary, subject to change, at the discretion of the cache owner, and probably completely meaningless (unless you just want to be announced sooner at the celebration party, if one even happens in 2022, as we didn't have one in 2020 and it looks dubious as to whether we'll have one in 2021). The real challenge is to see whether I can even figure out how to create a new puzzle each month this year! To maintain fairness, hints should not be offered by the cache owner or other solvers until the fifteenth of the month.
Special Notes about this month's puzzle: I originally hid this cache with a different theme in mind, but that puzzle didn't work out, and this one is more timely anyway. Because of the multiple steps involved, I'm going to give this a four-star difficulty, but I fully expect it to be solved in the first hour. Bonus points if you add a picture or drawing of any of these dishes to your log!
