Or you can go to the EXTREME side and watch this hilarious video about organic and inorganic foods:

Halia. The combination of "inorganic" and "food" does not make sense. :nerdicon:

I'd like to read all of this, but I only to have a minute to say;

Emnati, (common) bananas can't get immune, they're clones and don't get mutations at all as fast as the viruses will.

And I also read somewhere that someone said bananas are asexual... they're not.

And thanks Omin; I'll check into it in the lybrarys.

((On another thing; I'm looking into the University of Arizona, it is great if you want a medical job. I saw fake hearts and stuff!))

I think we need a definition of "food" now, Curu.

[Curulan]

food
n.

1. Material, usually of plant or animal origin, that contains or consists of essential body nutrients, such as carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, or minerals, and is ingested and assimilated by an organism to produce energy, stimulate growth, and maintain life.
2. A specified kind of nourishment: breakfast food; plant food.
3. Nourishment eaten in solid form: food and drink.
4. Something that nourishes or sustains in a way suggestive of physical nourishment: food for thought; food for the soul.

Therefore, as English is a growing and evolving language over time and cultural influences, we have not yet arrived at a contradiction. Thus in my honest, frank, and also veteran opinion, I have this to connclude:


PWNED!







I just realized this wasn't funny. Please don't read it.

[zipcat]

... there are a lot of things we eat that aren't organic. Like all of those nasty chemicals.

[Rufus Shinra]

[jadewik]

... but without the banana... how will we make people slip? Plastic Bananas?

... and what will Gwen sing about when she Hollas Back?

What is the world coming to?!

[Tordek]

We can just listen to how milkshakes bring boys to the yard!

[zipcat]

Tordek, just a random question; is it your goal to have things flow off topic?

[Tordek]

Bananas are an edible item. Milkshakes too are an edible item. Both are involved in songs. Songs came up in the last post.

I'm tempted to say, "go figure", but I think I will refrain myself.
