For clarification; it's not supposed to look appetizing; the title is from a Dr. Seuss childrens book: "I do not like green eggs and ham, I will not eat them Sam-I-Am".

Lighting really hard but you got the colours to look really gross for eggs. in that way affective but i think softer light would have helped and plate seems to be tilted to left
Well the image certainly meets the challenge very well.
Something about the table being set for a left hander just makes it odd to look at, not that there is anything wrong with left handed people of course, my own son is one.
In terms of image quality it has a real snapshot feel, a bit flat and uninteresting, with the top left hand corner being a a distration in my opinion.
There is also a depth of field problem with the foreground appearing to be out of focus.
To improve I would have possible put a dark table cloth under the plate, stood further back to take the shot and avoided cropping out the handle of the knife.
The flash is too bright/direct in this shot. It would have been less flat using a tripod and ambient lighting only. It's a shame the crop is so tight (I would have kept all the utensils in the frame). Still, I like the idea.
that does not look healthy... I hope nobody had to eat that. I like the contrast and the wide effect... but I would have tried to include the napkin and knife in total... those eggs look way too disturbing... sort of ruins it for me... 6
