Food trivia : (yes some more wonderfully useless info!!)
Some things are not what they seem. Did you know the following facts?

Rice paper does not contain one grain of rice - its made from either Rice straw, Bamboo, Hemp, Mulberry leaves, Wingceltis or Gampi.

Ten gallon hats only hold about 6 pints. (that's totally useless)

Refried beans aren't really what they seem. Although their name seems like a reasonable translation of Spanish frijoles refritos, the fact is that these beans aren't fried twice. In Spanish, refritos literally means "well-fried," not "re-fried."

The hamburger was invented in 1900 by Louis Lassen. He ground beef, broiled it, and served it between two pieces of toast. (sowhen when you have no buns and put it onbread it's the right way after all, huh?..)

The pound cake got its name from the pound of butter it contained. (I thought it was called # cake because it would make you gain them after eating it..)

The world's costliest coffee, at $130 a pound , is called Kopi Luwak. It is in the droppings of a type of marsupial that eats only the very best coffee beans. Plantation workers track them and scoop their precious poop. (Yummy, anyone want a cup?)

To determine the percentage of alcohol in a bottle of liquor divide the proof by two. (I'm sure most of you all ready knew that)

Spilling salt considered good luck in Japan.

The most recognized smell in the world is coffee.

About 8 percent of the weight in a box of corn flakes is corn.(what's the rest of it???)
