Food for thought.

I was writing up menu ideas for next month and a thought occurred:

Should I list hot dogs under 'sandwiches', and a bowl of cereal under 'soup'?

They sure are! ... Though I must admit I am also curious about this "grape discourse" you and a few others have mentioned.

The word "hamburger" makes NO sense. Most hamburgers aren't even made with rappig meat!

Right? No pork at all!

Ah, the grape discourse. I can't be too shocked that there are arguments bound to happen when you have a lot of creative people come together to try and make something for everyone to enjoy.

I like purple and would make a bunch of things purple... like apples. But I'd probably get into fights with someone who wants non-purple things because everything in one color would be terribly dull.

I wonder if we could make someone mad calling a Pork Bun a Hamburger.

Hehe. I don't think they didn't do too terrible a job. But I take it they didn't take in account animals and whether they can also enjoy them.

I wouldn't mind if everything was purple. But I would want to make everything sweeter and I know get into fights doing that.

Everyone's a critic. See, if I really wanted to infuriate the masses, I'd have mentioned the topic of pineapples on pizza.

I've accidentally started a bar fight or two over that. With pirates.
