A limitation on how many and what ingredients would be a challenge. And Wraith loved puzzles.

The first time they'd chopped onions, the wraith thought they were strange. Instead of making them tear up like humans did, it made them cough, like getting a hair stuck in the back of the mouth. Thus they had their doubts when Rogue had them add them to the meal. After being cooked however they found they were quite delicious in both flavor and texture and-like the tears-the coughing didn't return. Now they just muscled through it and held their breath until the effects wore off, and as Wraith could hold their breath longer than humans and they were quite good at chopping and dicing by now, it was a cinch.

The queen acknowledged her with a slight nod before returning her gaze upon her crew. A quiet fell over them as the group worked. "My commander says you chose a name for me" he said after a moment, and looked to Rogue again. "Victoria. A human queen on your home world. Tell me, what was her reign like?"
