The source of your aggravation inside the bowl was the most disgusting meal you had been presented with yet. While you had been fed grubs and swamp plants before, now was something that seemed like a perverse parody of cereal. And not the fun kind of perverse, oh no. The bowl was full of a thick, viscous green slime that clung to anything that touched it like a rancid tar. Even worse, there were grubs in it, but not the grubs you'd seen before. These grubs were big enough to eat the other grubs. These fat, almost bloated, blobs of white that wriggled around in the slime like they were trying to escape, but in slow motion.
