Wednesday's Wonderful Woohoooty Riddle

[TwinkieMama]

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.

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

Random thoughts you wanted to share huh

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???

From what I gather, the chocolate bean is a fruit, the sugar is a veggie, and the milk is dairy. It sounds like the breakfast of champions.

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!

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

Yes...beans are a fruit.

I know this because of that song...

"Beans beans, the musical fruit.
The more you eat the more you toot."

[hiwaygal]

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)
