Josh Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 And if it's a grain, are grains fruits or vegetables? Or neither? Like legumes? And why are peanuts legumes and almonds aren't? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Posted February 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 So, in other words, neither one of you has the answers. And, no, I'm not high, nor am I drinking. I'm simply a curious young man who thought his online friends might know a thing or two. Apparently not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris F Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Rice is a cereal grain. And grains are called "corn" in the UK and Ireland (according to Wikipedia), so I'm calling grain a vegetable. You're on your own with legumes.

dogbert Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 It's a grain, obviously. And according to the Wikipedia, a grain is a fruit with a very thin wall that's fused to the seed, making the seed inside the part we eat, so it's actually a caryopsis. Wikipedia knows all, except when it's wrong, obviously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Posted February 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Wow. You know it's a great thread when you get Gary out of hibernation. As far as rice burners, yes.

weremichael Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Here's the skinny on your almond/peanut confusion. They are both fruit. Peanuts (legumes) are dug up from the ground: While your tasty friend the almond, which is closely related to the peach (just look at a peach pit will ya'), form on the branches of a tree like you would expect: Anyhoo, I commend you for your curiosity and frown on those that suspect your desire for knowledge is based out of inebriation.

Josh Posted February 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Pedro: Man, what is in this shit, man? Man Stoner: Mostly Maui Waui man, but it's got some Labrador in it. Pedro: What's Labrador? Man Stoner: It's dog shit. Pedro: What? Man Stoner: Yeah, my dog ate my stash, man. Pedro: Yeah? Man Stoner: I had it on the table and the little motherfucker ate it, man. Then I had to follow him around with a little baggie for three days, man, before I got it back. Really blew the dog's mind, ya know? Pedro: You mean we're smokin' dog shit, man? Man Stoner: Gets ya high, don't it? [song, "Rockin' Robin" plays... ] Man Stoner: I think it's even better than before, you know? Pedro: Uhhh, I wonder what Great Dane tastes like, man.

EnemaEms Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 Why does it take a fucked up topic like this to remind us all that Gary is still alive? Also, why the fuck do I have to be compared to said fucked-up topics? Finally, I always thought the rice comment towards Eastern vehicles was kind of racist. Imagine what they call Caddy's over there. -Dean- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
