A hidden sentence, revealed by the answers to its clues. The clock starts when you press start — not before.
The “negative calorie” idea. Celery is about ninety-five per cent water, so a stalk carries almost no energy at all — though dietitians reckon chewing and digesting it only comes close to cancelling that out rather than beating it.
Two ways in. Type an answer from the list above and its letters appear in the sentence. Or type a word you can guess from the sentence itself — it fills in where it stands, and completes the answers those letters belong to. Every letter of the sentence belongs to exactly one answer, and the small number on a tile is its position in the sentence. Hover a clue to see which tiles it owns.
