There's rice spread out all over the ground. This will cause the Predator to come because he loves kome (rice). Then once he's gone, the next Predator will come to eat.

Also imagine everyone else coming to the rice next. When rice spills, people come from all around to line up and grab a handful of it to take home. Who's next? Come forward!

When they come, though, everyone is disappointed. It turns out it's rye (らい) grains, and rye grains taste terrible. Yuck.
