୭ৎ episode summary: mayumi has somehow gone twenty years without ever baking a single thing, but she confidently believes her taste buds can identify any food while blindfolded. to put that confidence to the test, she calls two equally chaotic friends who share her complete lack of culinary expertise. what follows is flour covering every inch of the kitchen, mysteriously disappearing bags of chocolate chips that colette insists she definitely didn't eat, and cookies burnt beyond recognition. by the end, nobody can even tell what the original recipe was supposed to be, making the mystery ingredients almost impossible to guess.
