Once upon a time, there was a group of vegetable friends - an aubergine, a carrot, a corn, a cucumber, and a pepper. They all lived in a garden together and were the best of friends. One day, they decided to have a picnic and bring a salad for everyone to share.
But as they were preparing the salad, they realized they had all brought different ingredients. The aubergine brought eggplant, the carrot brought carrots, the corn brought corn, the cucumber brought cucumbers, and the pepper brought peppers.
They were all puzzled and didn't know what to do. Suddenly, the aubergine had an idea. "Why don't we mix all the ingredients together to make a super salad?" he said.
And so, they did just that! They mixed all the ingredients together and it turned out to be the most delicious and colorful salad they had ever tasted. They all laughed and danced around the table, enjoying their creation.
From then on, they always made sure to mix their ingredients together to make the best salads ever. The end.
