The only seasoning they had in their possession was salt. Theresa also noted that it was a brand that only existed before the apocalypse.
So, it was obvious that someone from the inner camp had supplied them with salt.
The residents here might be living harsh and painfully primitive lives, but she also noticed it was strangely peaceful here.
Well, it was certainly way better than those cannibal camps she had the displeasure of knowing.
“Beautiful, should we eat too?” Quentin asked.
“Yeah. We’ll be having stew tonight,” Theresa waved him off, giving him full permission to flaunt their goods in the locals‘ faces.
They’d made her life difficult earlier, so why shouldn’t she give tit for tat?
I can’t wait to see them choke in jealousy once they see what we’re having for dinner, she thought smugly.
So, she started the fire and tossed a good helping of butter into the pot before pouring the soup she’d packed away into the pot.
Then, she added two fresh tomatoes to the hearty tomato–based broth, allowing it to simmer gently. The delicious scent quickly caught everyone’s attention.
“That smells amazing!”
“What’s that delicious smell?”
“It’s stew!”
Everyone began to crane their necks to look at what Theresa and the others were having.
They could smell butter!
They could smell an assortment of spices!
Heck, they could even smell fresh tomatoes!
The crowd, who only had boiled vegetables and bland pieces of fish, couldn’t help but drool.

Oh, they would kill just to have a taste of that stew!
Lara and Lachlan couldn’t help but feel a sense of deja vu. After all, they used to look at Theresa with the same hungry and hopeful eyes before they joined the alliance!
Thankfully, the heavens shone upon them, and they were blessed with good food. They could have all the food for themselves!
Quentin had just whipped out a pile of ingredients and pasta, and was about to dig in when Ava trotted over with her bowl. “Whoa, now that’s food!”
Her eyes were glued to the steaming pot of stew merrily bubbling away.
There was a sheen of oil on the surface of the tomato–based stew.
“I told you we have no shortage of food out there,” Lara said with a shrug.
At this point, Ava was seriously tempted to take the leap of faith. So, she crouched down and whispered, “Take me with you. I want to join the alliance!”
“Alright, you’re in,” Theresa replied.
“Awesome!” Ava was over the moon. Then, her eyes swung back to the pot of stew as she tentatively broached the subject, asking, “Can I have some?”
“Knock yourself out.”
Ava didn’t go for the meat. Instead, she scooped a big ladle of the oily broth and poured it over her rice.
Then, she gobbled up all her broth–soaked rice without even lifting a finger to grab a piece of
meat.
Oh, my God. I’m in heaven! It’s so good! Ava squealed inwardly.
The rich, greasy flavor coating her mouth and tongue genuinely made her feel as though she’d gotten a slice of heaven.
Before the apocalypse, she was like any other girl, meaning she tended to avoid fatty or oily foods. She could still remember that she used to prefer light and healthy meals.
Yet, her preference could go to hell for all she cared. She had suffered for four years in the apocalypse. Right now, she’d scarf down a chunk of lard and rejoice.
Besides, her body needed this, okay?

There were only so much boiled vegetables a girl could take, alright?
She was only human. She had cravings. Fat cravings!

After four years of hell, the rich, savory taste of fat did not repulse her. Instead, it brought her joy as she devoured her meal in seconds.
When others saw this, some of the braver ones darted over.
“Ava, how’d you get to eat that?”
“John, Jim, Ellen, you guys should totally join us! Join us, and this is all yours!” Ava exclaimed, shoveling food into her mouth.
She quickly finished her bowl, scooped up more tomato broth, and added a whole bright red tomato to her bowl.
Her eyes shone with joy as she felt the weight of the tomato settle inside her bowl. Then, she picked it up and bit into it.
The unique, rich aroma of tomato filled the air as the stew bubbled away. The scent of tomatoes seemed to wrap them in a warm embrace. Sure enough, Ava’s friends could only stare in awe as she bit into the tomato.
As her lips moved away from the morsel, they saw juicy tomato flesh and seeds on full display.
“Join what?”
“Join their alliance! Follow that lady and you’ll get to eat like royalty. It’s seriously so good!”
“I’m in! I’m so in!”
“Me too!”
They were practically frothing at the mouth to join them now.
Theresa welcomed those who were interested in the alliance with open arms. As a result, there was not a single empty seat around their fire.
Most of the outer camp members could only stare at them longingly, but didn’t dare come
closer.
Rita, who’d gotten into an altercation with Theresa, felt even worse as the scent of real food wafted over to her side of the camp.

Meanwhile, four to five people had signed up to join Theresa’s alliance because of the food. So, she figured there was no harm in skipping dinner and giving her portion to them.
Honestly, none of them had gone for the beef. All of them were only interested in the oily broth. Heck, they didn’t even bother waiting for the ingredients to be fully cooked before stuffing their mouths full.
The big pot of stew was gone in no time. Yet, they weren’t satisfied as they added water to the broth before chugging it down.
Theresa, Quentin, and Vinny could only stare at the unhinged way they were eating, losing their appetite.
Even Lara and Lachlan, who used to be in the same boat as Ava and her brethren, couldn’t stomach it.
After all, they already knew what food was supposed to taste like, and they could never go back to paltry meals like… that.
Just then, a chubby guy came running over, drawn by the smell.
“That smells so good,” he exclaimed as he zoomed straight for the stew. Then, he shamelessly dumped his half–eaten food into the pot before grabbing it and making a break for it.
