A cow and a chicken once went on strike...

...and no one really cared about them, so they were alone until morning came. They were hungry, so the cow said, "We should really get some breakfast! I'm craving pancackes". The chicken responded, "No way! It would be painful to give away a whole egg, and doesn't that defeat the purpose of our strike?". So, without mentioning that the poor Mr. Pork would have to be killed for the bacon, they set up to make pancakes without milk and without eggs.

To start, they laid out the ingredients:

• 1 cup flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tbsp sugar
• pinch of salt
• dash of cinnamon
• 1 cup almond milk
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil

They mixed all of the ingredients to make a batter, and they cooked the batter in a skillet in medium-high heat. When bubbles started to appear on the surface, they flipped them over in the most gracious way. They were done in no time. They poured a generous amount of maple syrup on top of them and realized that the flavor and consistency was so delicate, that they wouldn't need to kill the pig for the bacon.

They happily ate the whole plate and drank cranberry-pomegranate juice, then were off to start their days with a smile.
