897 - 989 - 982 - 987 - 989 - 998
These were my chicken scores from the invitational at the Royal this past year. Background - I'm a master judge turned cook and am not trying to start a fight and bash judges, but in all my judging and cooking, I've never given nor received nor seen a 982. So, speculating, I'm thinking either it is a data entry error and that 2 was maybe a 7 (it's the invitational and they were rushed?), or my chicken tasted "very good," but it was also "inedible," which seems. . . odd. No comment cards given, but its the invitational and I don't know if that's a time issue and they aren't done. Also, I know this would not have affected my score in anyway - not trying to gain in the standings. Serious question though - can you have chicken that tastes very good, but is also inedible? Happy Monday friends!
