For Earth Day, what is an amazing (weird) comment you've heard about food?
Last weekend, a Tokyo-Metropolitan visitor to our garden commented,?"You mean, tomatoes don't grow on trees? You plant them every year?" What other weird, unbelievable comments have you heard about food?

Years back, I gave a Christmas cookie exchange. Since no one had ever attended one, we had a pre-exchange tea where I explained the 'rules'. All ten Ladies were to bring 50 cookies, so we could exchange them. Afterward one lady asked if she could bring 'store bought (meaning packaged)'.
"No, home=made only."
"I've never baked cookies before."
"You can find some great recipes at the library (this is before the internet and food52)".
She showed up with 50 perfectly shaped cookies--the size of a penny!
Baked in her oven toaster.

My neighbor, Norm, says to me, "Too bad you can't eat pizza"
I say, "Why can't I eat pizza?"
Norm says,"Because it has pepperoni and mushrooms on it."
