Sizekin Food answer: October 29
The five Food silhouettes for October 29, with the true sizes. If you have not played yet, this page is a spoiler — play these five first, then come back to argue with the numbers.
Day 5 ran from Radish (2.223 cm) to Angel Food Cake (22.86 cm). The widest gap was round 5, Angel Food Cake against Fig, at 4.0×; the closest call was round 1, Lemon against Salami Slice, only 1.5× apart — the kind of round that separates a 90 from a 60.
