• A red herring.

    Three of the words were the names of Spice Girls (Baby Spice, Sporty Spice, and Scary Spice). I know there was at least one more (Posh Spice), but I wanted to be sure there wasn’t another one hiding amongst the remaining words. ETA: Apparently there was a Ginger Spice, but I couldn’t remember her. Otherwise I would have taken the bait.
