The Progression

When we first arrived: "There are ants in the food. We will have to throw it out."

After a month: "There are ants in it, but we may be able to salvage some of it."

After two months: "There are ants in it, but I think that we can get them out."

After three months: "There are ants in it, but not that many. We can still eat it."

Today: "There are ants in it. Just pray and eat."
