Candace Hates Spinach

One fine evening, Tulio, Snow White, Lampwick and Candace Flynn were having dinner at a fancy restaurant.
The waiter placed their meals in front of them - steak with rum sauce, broccoli and mashed potatoes for Tulio, escarole bean soup for Snow White, grilled chicken for Lampwick and a spinach salad for Candace. "Mmmmm!" Tulio said. "Looks good!"
Candace was ready to dig into her supper, but before she could, she picked out a few things she did not like. "Cucumbers, yucky. Mushrooms, yucky. Onions, yucky... and smelly." she muttered. Then she took out a raw green spinach leaf from her salad. "Hey, this isn't lettuce!" she yelled, "What kind of a salad is it?"
"Uh-oh, she's gonna pop!" Lampwick said, looking worried.
"This is spinach!" Candace said.
As the waiter was refilling Candace's glass, he looked at her. "Is something the matter?" he asked.
"This is spinach." Candace said. Then she shouted, "And I! HATE! SPINACH!!!!!"
On "spinach", Candace threw her fist on the plate, causing the salad bowl to fly off her plate and land right on the waiter's head! Everyone stared at the Steilen family in shock. The waiter was humiliated and very angry to have salad on his head.
"Uh-oh." Candace gulped.
"That's it!" the waiter said angrily, "I quit!" He stormed off. Snow White and Lampwick felt embarrassed, but Tulio was very, very angry at Candace.
"I'm so embarrassed!" Snow White said to herself.
"Candace Gertrude Flynn Steilen!" Tulio scolded through gritted teeth. Candace hung her head in guilt.
Later on, the Steilen family drove back home. Tulio was still angry. Miss Bianca, Teresa Brisby and Abigail were babysitting Kilala Reno and her brother Riku and their sister Babs Bunny.
"Back so soon?" Bianca asked.
"Did you have a good time?" Teresa asked.
"How did it go?" asked Abigail.
Lampwick began telling the female mice what had happened. "Candace punched her salad and it exploded!" Tulio and Snow White glared at their son as he finished the story. "All over the waiter and everyone was staring at us."
"They were not," Candace yelled. She took off her sweater and folded her arms, pouting. "Everyone's making this into such a big deal!"
"No more restaurants for you, young lady," Tulio told Candace. "Until you can behave and learn to eat what's placed in front of you. Now go to your room!"
Candace became very angry. She glared angrily at Tulio and told him, "You're as evil as Dr. Doofenshmirtz!" She then went to her room in tears, where her best friends Stacy Hirano and Jenny Brown were waiting for her.
"Father, can we still go to Aunt Bianca, Aunt Teresa, and Aunt Abigail's birthday party at the Once Upon a Buffet and Grill next week?" Kilala asked.
"Yes, Kilala." Tulio said, "But I'm afraid Candace will not be joining us."
