Sorry, sweetie… That only worked for Dumbo.

And bedsides, that was in a cartoon.

I’m afraid you’re earthbound.

I looked… and I blinked… and I looked again.
It looks like a cranberry bog.

Guess what… It is a cranberry bog.

Silly me and my preconceived notions.

It doesn’t mean they’re growing cranberries in a desert country where the men wear turbans. Men wear turbans, of course, everywhere, if it’s their culture.

I just never realized that a great many of the cranberry harvest workers in British Columbia are Sikhs.

This is from a photo spread on the 2008 harvest.

Same double-take. I knew it had to be cranberries. But in India? That’s just wrong. Thanks for the info.

Really cute.

Having baked tons of cookies in my life, and…. um…

Okay… I just have to get over feeling a little weird about the association of dog butts and cookies.

Oops… I left an answer but now I see an error in my ways…
Two actually

One was not really an error, without parentheses, because who can say where they were supposed to go….

But in what I consider the correct order… And with something I couldn’t see before…

I should have gotten
30

Now to peek, and see whether MCTS agrees.

I got:
7 + 7 + 7 = 21

7 + (5 x 7) = 42

5 + 9 + 9 = 23

(9 + 9) + 5 + 7 = 30

Didn’t spot that errant ‘+’ instead of the ‘=’, whoops!

Nachos are not on the list?

Some nachos are worse than others… I make mine with real cheese, chicken and fresh salsa… lots of avocado if I can get it. More toppings than chips.

I don’t consider them junk food.

Nachos you buy at the fair or the ball park… A pile of cheap chips with canned cheese sauce… junk food.

Anyway there’s only one food for each country, and they already had Takis for Mexico… (though singling out one brand seems weird),v and they picked cheeseburgers.

Personally, though… I don’t consider most cheeseburgers junk food either, certainly not compared to gummy bears and doughnuts, and cupcakes with 4″ high frosting on top

There are plenty of worse foods than a lot on this list.

Cheeseburgers, meat pies, fish and chips, even pizza… I’m not going to say they’re exactly healthful, but if you don’t overindulge, and eat lots of vegetables and fruit with them, they’re not that bad…

Not like having sugar frosted flakes and chocolate cream pie for dinner. Drinking a 40 oz diet soda, or fake orange soda, like the teenagers in the mall.

IMHO some of the laboratory engineered fake meat out there is worse than beef, in its own way

I wouldn’t object to calling this…. I dunno… “Not the Best Dietary Choices”…

But there are so many junkier foods.

This was played on the in house (read pub) radio feed a couple of weeks ago (I find it amusing).

Nowadays, I would wear a long t-shirt and a mug of coffee.
