Foods that make you wonder

rollingthunder · 09-07-2009, 05:30 PM

so i was sitting here in my room, eating a thing of popcorn...and it donned on me

who in the hell decided to dry out a kernel of a grass-like plant, and then heat it till it explodes and then try eating it.

that and even maple syrup.. lets boil the hell out of the gooey stuff that oozes out of a tree and then try eating it..

ever think about these things?

africans

rollingthunder · 09-07-2009, 05:43 PM

haha really? what a stupid concept.

Sir-Ex · 09-07-2009, 05:44 PM

Well the maple syrup seems pretty self evident; anyone and his brother could figure that boiling down sweet liquid is going to make it sweeter.

And who decided two heat up a kernel of popcorn. Some native american way back. How'd he know to do it? My guess - forest fires.

SO yeah I guess i do think about these things. But I don't get stumped on them like you ya chump

"Corn popping was originally discovered by Native Americans, but became popular as a snack food during the United States Great Depression, especially in movie theaters."

Popcorn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I used to wonder about stuff like this too, then they invented the internet, and with it Wikipedia.

theres this african food that is very poisonous unless cooked in a certain way, i forget the name, but how did they know?

rollingthunder · 09-07-2009, 06:26 PM

this is what i mean. or the guy who decided to crack open an oyster. "Lets open up something that looks like a rock and use it for food."

who knew?

OldMan&TheWeed · 09-07-2009, 06:26 PM

The ONLY way I'll eat popcorn anymore is with Marmite.

Marmite - Love it or hate it

Marmite is gross on anything and everything EXCEPT popcorn. Put it on in place of salt, butter, or anything else. A few drops or a light drizzle is all that is needed. The smallest bottle they sell lasts us a year. They sell it on ebay. Give it a try next time you get the munchies.

rollingthunder · 09-07-2009, 06:32 PM

rollingthunder · 09-07-2009, 07:00 PM

Sir-Ex · 09-09-2009, 06:04 PM

~1~ · 09-09-2009, 07:17 PM

Back on topic, kinda...

Dried Tiger testicles?
Freeze dried Rhino penis?
Sea Urchin sperm?

I can understand, these things might get your dick hard as Chinese algebra, how much other shit did these guys try out before they settled on those?

And how the fuck you talk that first guy into it?

"Say Chang, hows it hangin'? No seriously, how is it hanging. I got these goat colons I been soaking in the urine of sixteen virgins. You hungry?"

rollingthunder · 09-09-2009, 07:20 PM

i didnt even think you could get a hold of sea urchin sperm.

haha im with you on that one..
pickled camel foot? one of the people in my bio class was talkin about it as we walked out.

who the hell would want to pickle a camel foot?

my_scatterheart · 09-09-2009, 07:34 PM

People that live in a torrid land and have to use the meat available to them.

And by that I mean them goddamn a-rabs

rollingthunder · 09-09-2009, 07:37 PM

but at the same time, they had other animals like donkeys and they had every other piece of the camel to eat.

must have been one starving a-rab

my_scatterheart · 09-09-2009, 07:38 PM

Thats because they already ate the rest of the camel.

rollingthunder · 09-09-2009, 07:42 PM

.. i want to know what they pickled it in..

my_scatterheart · 09-09-2009, 07:44 PM
