"Why, my dear? What about Carlotta Pinkstone seems deserving to you?"

"Thats certainly a possiblity." Truebridge agreed.

He paused, head tilting to one side. "Actually, I quite liked the rotten cabbage flavour." Hmm.
"I think Bertie is most deserving 'cause everyone loves sweeties and his invention musta made loadsa people happy." Hehe. Like him. YAY!
"I quite like sand flavour. It seems like it will be terrible but it makes me think of hot summer days and the beach. That is a good point that his sweets make people happy, but why do you think he invented not-so-nice flavours?"

"Culinary advances! Oh yes! Certainly that is true; it is a feat that he can make candy taste of feet, is it not?" Trubridge pointed at the Gryffindor's feet, "How do you suppose he got that idea... and how do you think he knew what all those things tasted like?"

To grab the audience's attention, I mean." An exploding tuba would certainly grab one's attention.
Pondering for a moment, Juniper added, "And I agree with Clifford that Bertie Bott is the most deserving. Everybody's heard of Bertie Bott, because everybody's heard of Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans. And I expect most everybody enjoys them as well, because there's always a flavor that somebody would like."
"Certainly, She might have. It's certainly not what one expects but then perhaps that was the point? Maybe she had other reasons besides merely providing entertainment?"
Truebridge petted the cat again, beginning to wonder who it belonged to.
"Good answer, its fairly neat that he can please and disappoint everyone with his beans. A reflection of life perhaps."

"Ah yes, and why do you think Quong Po is the most deserving?" Professor Truebridge asked, looking around at the students, pleased they were getting involved in the discussions and beginning to
think.
