Angel: why would some say it isn't a vegetable????????:confused: unless I am wrong it is a vegetable (both botanically and legally)........

[Duckfan-in-Chicago]

Don't feel stupid, some would say this is not even a vegetable:confused3
And others would say it's in a can of V8.

[L107ANGEL]

And others would say it's in a can of V8.

Nobody says that:confused3

[Duckfan-in-Chicago]

Nobody says that:confused3
I think the can says it in the ingredient list?
V8 ® 100% Vegetable Juice provides vegetable juices from the following major color groups:

* Red GROUP—tomatoes and beets – provides powerful, natural antioxidants. The antioxidant Lycopene is found naturally in tomatoes, and helps protect against cell damage.
* Orange GROUP—carrots — delivers vitamin A (alpha— and beta—carotene) to help maintain vision and a healthy immune system.
* Green GROUP—V8® provides a sampling from this group of spinach, celery, lettuce, parsley, and watercress — when consumed in sufficient quantities, it helps round out your diet with other vitamins, minerals, and natural antioxidants.

I guess I should have had a can a of V8

You may be right...found this on the net:
Chocolate is a vegetable: Chocolate is derived from cocoa beans.
Beans = vegetable.

Sugar is derived from either sugar CANE or sugar BEETS. Both are plants, which places them in the vegetable category. Thus, chocolate is a vegetable.

To go one step further, chocolate candy bars also contain milk, which is dairy. So candy bars are a health food.

[Duckfan-in-Chicago]

My google must be broken...I found this while trying to find facts about veggies:

Deep Thoughts about Women

Does a clean house indicate that there is a broken computer in it?

Why is it that no matter what colour of bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?

Is there ever a day when mattresses are NOT on sale?

Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with the hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?

Why do people keep running over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, then put it down to give their vacuum one more chance?

How do those dead bugs get into closed light fixtures?

Why do we wash BATH towels? Aren't we clean when we use them? If not then what was the purpose of the bath?

Considering all the lint you get in your dryer, if you kept drying your clothes would they eventually just disappear?

When we are in the supermarket and someone rams our ankle with a shopping cart then apologizes for doing so, why do we say 'It's all right'? It isn't all right, so why don't we say, 'That hurt, you stupid idiot?'

Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that's falling off the table you always manage to knock something else over?

Is it true that the only difference between a yard sale and a trash pickup is how close to the road the stuff is placed?

In winter, why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we complained about the heat?

Why do women always ask questions that have no right answers?

Why do old men wear their pants higher than younger men?

Why is it that inside every older person is a younger person wondering what the heck happened?

If diamonds are a girl's best friend and a dog is man's best friend, who really is the dumber sex?

Why is it that men can react to broken bones as 'just a sprain' and deep wounds as 'just a scratch,' but when they get the sniffles they are deathly ill 'with the flu' and have to be bedridden for weeks?

How come we never hear any father-in-law jokes?

Why do men forget everything and women remember everything?

Do Chinese people get hungry an hour after they eat American food?

Shouldn't all married men forget their mistakes? After all there's no sense in two people remembering the same things right?

Is the real reason women live longer then men because they don't have to live with women?

If at first you don't succeed, shouldn't you try doing it like your wife told you to?

That just goes to show that you can't believe everything you read on the internet (gasp!).... beans are a fruit botanically speaking. Now the government has labeled them vegetables for tax purposes but then again the government has has made ketchup a vegetable......

As for your next post, I take my job as a roll model very seriously so I won't say anything ;)

Sure, botanically speaking, but that language died out with the dodo bird. In the USA where we speak American, it's a veggie. Who calls peas a fruit? And they're a legume too. That's just silliness.

ETA:Ketchup is a condiment, and we don't care for it in Chicago. If you put it on a hotdog you better be under 12 or have some kinda condition.

Peas are a fruit. And a legume. A legume is a TYPE of fruit. I don't eat peas because, nutritionally speaking; they are a starch and I prefer my starches to taste like french fries or twinkies or at least a loaded baked potato.

Now I agree with you that ketchup is a condiment. However here in the USA it is, legally, a vegetable.... so is a tomato which is also actually a fruit (not a legume, it is a pome)

Thank GOD!!! See I knew there was someone out there as smart (or chocolate driven) as me!



In looking up info about my cats cold I learned that there is acupuncutre that can treat it!

Have these folks ever tried bathing a cat let alone sticking needles in there and leaving them in for sustained intervals of time!

These folks should reply to the ? of the day, they may make me look smart!

See now Twinkee you should have had a choclate shake instead of a V8!!!

Well, I sometimes play on the bad side of the law so my ketchup is illegal.

SO then Twinks the fat from the chocolate would be a healthy one as it is derived from a vegetable rather than a meat????

If you hadn't guessed I am all about the healthy foods???:rotfl:

SO if I dip my banana in choclate before adding to my speical K skim mile breakfast I have covered all my food groups and it sure sounds like the breakfast of champions to me!:lmao:

Just to play it safe I should add that chocolate shake!!!!!:rotfl:

and, why is something "legally" a fruit or "legally" a veggie?

Who made up that Law??

Are the veggies/fruits going to sue us for slander if we call them by their wrong "group"?

Has the ACLU gotten hold of this yet? This could be a HUGE cash cow for them!! (oops...I'll bet the cows don't like that saying)

Ok we have a hero that is either a cucumber or pickle with a plunger through it :rotfl2:

[TwinkieMama]

Ok long ago and far away at the founding of our great nation, fruits and vegetables were under different import/export/tariff laws so at some point lists where made of which food belonged in each group for tax purposes really... no one consulted a botanist and food groups for nutrition had not been invented.

Botanically a fruit is the mature ovary of the plant... therefore if it contains a seed it is a fruit. Tomatos, cucumbers, beans, corn, peas... while we think of them as veggies (and they are taxed as veggies) all contain seeds.

Much more recently, there was concern over child nutrition. Some folks noticed that children do not eat enough vegetables. Our great nation vowed to fix this problem! Tax supported school lunches would be healthy! The poor children of the US of A would get their veggie-veggie-fruit group (aside: I really miss "Food Rocks")!!!! But, alas and alack even when healthy veggies (botanically fruit!) were offered children still did not eat them! What a huge waste of food and money... so we did the American thing. We changed the definition of a vegetable (enter ketchup) so now our school lunches do have an adequate number of vegetables. (cue patriotic music)

Does that mean that peppers are also fruit?

[SleepingBeautyDreamr]

Wow...you have pretty typing. I'd read it more closely, but I've learned my fact for the day, and I'm afraid of pushing something out.

no offense but does that mean you have a brain the size of a pea since it can only contain one fact a day? :confused3

[SleepingBeautyDreamr]

*snicker* she said ovary *snicker*

:rotfl2: :lmao: :rotfl2: :lmao: You said ovary too :rotfl2: :lmao: :rotfl2: :lmao:

no offense but does that mean you have a brain the size of a pea since it can only contain one fact a day? :confused3Size isn't everything. Look at the size of a dinosaur's brain.

It can contain more than one fact a day, but why risk it?

Yes.

[Duckfan-in-Chicago]

coming from a man:rolleyes:I heard it from a woman....it would be so unlike one of 'them' to lie to me.

[TwinkieMama]

A vegetable is, botanically speaking, any part of the plant that you eat that isn't a flower, fruit, or root.

So scratch carrots too.

[SleepingBeautyDreamr]

I don't think she's so much a botanist as an anti-vegetarite.

:rotfl2: :lmao: :rotfl2: :lmao:

[SleepingBeautyDreamr]

I heard it from a woman....it would be so unlike one of 'them' to lie to me.

And you actually believe that :rotfl2: :lmao:

[Duckfan-in-Chicago]

That takes a LONG time. They have a peeler that works great.

Since this other woman obviously had a vested interest, she didn't want to tell you the truth.

She didn't lie, exactly (lie is such a terrible word, really)....she just allowed you to believe a myth.

That takes a LONG time. They have a peeler that works great.

[jw50]

coming from a man:rolleyes:

Hey, we learned that line from you girls:rolleyes:

[jw50]

We also learned never to truthfully answer any question like "Does this make me look fat?";)

[L107ANGEL]

We also learned never to truthfully answer any question like "Does this make me look fat?";)

In which the correct answer would be...............................................

[Duckfan-in-Chicago]

In which the correct answer would be...............................................O h, look! A UFO.

[alabamaalan]

In which the correct answer would be...............................................

I'm not sure about the correct answer, but when I came to I realized that it was not "The dress is fine; it's that butt that makes you look fat"

[L107ANGEL]

You guys are soo bad:rotfl:

[SleepingBeautyDreamr]

The best is my two co workers were out drinking all night and I think they're still drunk:thumbsup2

That has to be good entertainment :lmao:

[SleepingBeautyDreamr]

Smart man :thumbsup2

[SleepingBeautyDreamr]

I'm not sure about the correct answer, but when I came to I realized that it was not "The dress is fine; it's that butt that makes you look fat"

That is soooo not right. Pure evil :sad2:

[jw50]

In which the correct answer would be...............................................

As far as a guy is concerned there is no correct answer to that question which is why the best answer is a non-answer;)

[hiwaygal]

Oh, look! A UFO.



:lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

[alabamaalan]

That is soooo not right. Pure evil :sad2:

For the record, I have never even THOUGHT such a thing, and I most certainly would be more tactful than that if I did.

I have too much love, respect, and abject fear to do such a thing ::yes::

[L107ANGEL]

Silence will get you into just as much trouble in my house;)

I have offered my husband a list of 17 things I would always like to hear and he can just cycle through them or pick one at random. All he has to do is say them in a sincere tone of voice... doesn't even have to agree with 'em!

OK, DH is about to walk through the door and I have half done chores everywhere yet I sit here laughing with my riddle peeps.... should I

a) brown some ground beef and onion so he thinks dinner might be happening?
b) see how much laundry I can hide before he comes home?
c) ask him if these jeans make me look fat so he is confused and on the defense and thus too scared to inquire about the lack of clean clothes and hot meals?

[TwinkieMama]

"What?!???? Of course NOT. Those jeans make you look thin. In fact you are looking pretty hot. Why don't you come eat some peanut butter?"


:rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:


So then I told him that we were discussing it on the disboards and he had a suggestion for the rest of you guys.

The Chicken Little.


Adopt a blank look. Long pause followed by....
