Fridge Spiders would be a useful weight loss tool. Anyone up for a little genetic tinkering?

talking about the chicken pineapple kabobs made me go to the store to make them for supper......

I came to believe that pineapples were citrus because they were one of the flavors in Citrus Lifesavers.

I can't take your poll... I had never really thought about it before, but I wouldn't have gotten the answer correct if I'd been asked. We never had "proper fruit classification" class in my school. Sorry monster.

monster · 01-25-2011, 08:27 PM

it's ok, I forgive you. Just remember, when life throws you pineapples, make pineappleade.

ZenGum · 01-25-2011, 08:30 PM

Dang, people, pineapples grow up from the ground like cabbages. Citrus fruits grow from branches on woody trees. Milk does not come from, but only via, convenience stores. Ketchup is not a vegetable.

Oh and not only do we put pineapple on pizza, we put in on hamburgers as well. But heck, we put beetroot on burgers too, sometimes.

monster · 01-25-2011, 08:43 PM

beetroot is not the troot of a bee, either.

DanaC · 01-26-2011, 04:53 AM

We do the pineapple on burger thing over here. It's usualy listed as a hawaian burger ;p

You would not believe how many people--very normal, educated people, mind you--have said to me, "Eggs? But I thought you said he couldn't have dairy."

To which I always reply, "It's okay, as long as we don't milk the chickens."

And still, a stunning number just nod and say, "Oh, okay."

One of my farmer friends was at a market in NYC and a woman asked her what the chickens ate. The farmer told her "Grain, oyster shells, and they run around and eat a lot of insects and grubs."
The woman freaked out "You let them eat insects? That's disgusting."
"Well, they're chickens, that's what birds eat. Insects."
The woman shot back, "Chickens aren't birds. What's wrong with you?" and she stormed off.
