Gaslight: Always make yourself seem confident in your food even if it's a new recipe you've never tried.
Gatekeep: Give out the easy information, simple recipes, small cooking tips, stuff like that but keep the good stuff for yourself.
Gaslight again: if people get suspicious about how you never share any really good recipes just lie and say they're family secrets or something.
Pack Your Bags: Listen, if you fail at lying then the only real solution left is to move far away.
Picking A New Name: Make it something basic but realistic. Remember that your old name is dead and you live a new life now.
Believe In The Lie: The first person to know you're lying will be yourself. Make the lie your life, really live in it. You aren't David Brown from Demascus Virginia. You are Landan Beaver from China Grove North Carolina and have always been Landan Beaver.
If You Find A Recipe Online: Double those spices if the name of the writer sounds like a white person.
