Shallow Thinkers 2
 
Food for Thought

I asked 2 chicken breeders if they were genetically engineering chickens to have less bone structure. They said they were not. I then asked them how do restaurants get boneless chicken wings. They said it is anatomically impossible.

I went to a Chinese restaurant and ordered 2 egg rolls which they made up fresh. I watched them and questioned why they did not use any egg. They said there is no egg in an egg roll.

I tried to make some minute rice and it took 5 minutes.

I began to wonder why our world has grown into such a misinformation society. And people believing the misinformation. I think it must have started with what we are eating.

Is there any egg in the wrapper of an egg roll?

Egg rolls (according to a few websites I browsed) are basically a chinese version of a rolled crepe. And a 1917 cookbook had them wrapped in a thin omelet.

I don't know about boneless wings, but one time in rural Oregon near a chicken farm I saw a three-legged chicken running along the road at about 20 miles an hour. The manager said they were breeding them that way to increase production. I asked if they tasted the same as regular chicken legs. He said that he didn't know because they hadn't caught one yet.

Is an egg a boneless, skinless chicken?

Is a scrambled egg a scrambled chicken or a scrambled fetus?

Why do we park on a driveway and drive on a parkway.
Why do we get on a plane and not in it.
Is the landing of a plane really the FINAL approach? Do they throw away the plane after that.

George Carlin had a lot of fun with these.

If GH can stand for P as in Hiccough
If OUGH stands for O as in Dough
If PHTH stands for T as in Phthisis
If EIGH stands for A as in Neighbor
If TTE stands for T as in Gazette
If EAU stands for O as in Plateau

The right way to spell POTATO should be:
