C# C# Basics Strings Combining Strings

Question Broken

Program.cs
using System;

class Program
{

    static string Eat(string par1, string par2)
    {
    return ("I think apples and blueberries are tasty!"); 
    }

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(Eat("apples", "blueberries"));
        Console.WriteLine(Eat("carrots", "daikon"));
    }

}

Define an Eat method that takes two string parameters. Eat should return a string in the form "I think [first parameter] and [second parameter] are tasty!" (without square brackets). For example, the call Eat("apples", "blueberries") should return "I think apples and blueberries are tasty!"

When I run any code in this section it returns something about eggs and falafel.

The example output given in the question is only valid when method is called as Eat("apples", "blueberries"). If different arguments are used, the method should return a string that contains those arguments.

The code shown here only returns a literal string and ignores the arguments. It needs to be re-coded so that it builds up the string using the arguments that are passed to it. This can easily be done using String Concatenation or String Interpolation.

using System;

class Program {

// YOUR CODE HERE: Define an Eat method!
static string Eat(string foodOne, string foodTwo)
{
    return ($"I think {foodOne} and {foodTwo} are tasty!");
}

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    Console.WriteLine(Eat("apples", "blueberries"));
    Console.WriteLine(Eat("carrots", "daikon"));
}

}
