An important discovery....

[Elbonio]

I undertook an experiment to further humankind.

Take one stick of Wrigleys Juicy Fruit chewing gum and one stick of Wrigleys Doublemint chewing gum.

Place one on top of the other and insert into mouth. Chew.

Do you get a minty fruit flavoured gum?

No. You get nothing.


It appears that juicy fruit is the opposite of doublemint and the two flavours do in fact cancel each other out, almost entirely.


Extraordinary.

[Screwball]

u really do have too much time on your hands :P

[King-Kodiak]

How do you think of these experiments?

[Scuz]

You now need to experiment with the whole Wrigleys range, and include a graph or pie chart as to what happens.

[Tsung]

You now need to experiment with the whole Wrigleys range, and include a graph or pie chart as to what happens.

A graph or Pie chart is exactly what you would expect a manager to ask for. It would mean nothing in this experiment. What is needed is a table, one row for each flavour, one column for each flavour. Experiment with the combination of flavours and enter the result in the table.

The important question that is now bugging me is...

Does it matter which one goes on top?

[Elbonio]

last time i put the juicy fruit on top


this time i didnt


and it didnt really make much difference

either way after a while you get a slight taste of both but it's nothign like what you'd get putting them in individually

[Xilly]

Try chewing each stick for 10 seconds and alternate sticks.

[Say_Ten]

A table is no good as you can combine more than two flavours. What you need is a data cube that supports more than 3 dimensions :)

You can, but the original experiment didn't. So a table would do the job. I still fail to see how a pie chart or bar chart would give any useful results.

[Elbonio]

i think what we need is some kind of trained panda that can read out the results to us and then promptly become extinct.

Yesterday I had a McD's banana shake and LadyU had a strawberry shake.
Half way down, we had the idea of mixing them together to see what the end result would be.

The result was that you get a banana shake that doesn't have quite so much sweetness and is smoother.

[Cabe]

I wonder if that also works with nesquick...

Alrighty, to the lab then!
Meep Meep
Your quite right, I of course mean kitchen.


EURIKA!! it is indeed a much smoother and less sickly concotion. Excellent work. Continued testing will continue.

[WhiteKnight]

Interesting.....

[Guigsy]

brown sause + ketchup
ketchup + mayo...

[Cabe]

1st one EWWWWWW

2nd one its called "Marie Rose Sauce" commonly found on prawn cocktails in middle class parties up and down the country.

[Frag-O-Byte]

mayo + ketchup is sickly... brown sauce + ketchup is ok..


what about lemonaide + cola! :8-o

[Baz]

wow cabe, never knew i had a name, i just called it "pink sauce"

its lovley on chips btw!

[andyf]

ketchup and mayo is SO a no-bits version of Thousand Island sauce. and it's wonderful. It's alongside Gravy as the greatest sauce alive. I'd have it with fillet steak anytime. eat me ryvita.

[her0n]

You ruin steaks :<

[andyf]

I make steaks moist.

[RTO]

I'm sending this message form another country. I feel the need to project my love onto you.



Keep up the good work.


I love you.


Long time.

I must say i`m with AndyF on this one..... ketchup on a lump of dead bovine = win

[pos]

jack daniels marinade is soooooo good. marinade over night, then grill... so so so so good, and i'm not a huge fan of steak

Wizzo - do this at SLAN

[Cabe]

only if the said bovine is ground into a mince then reformed into patties.

if its straight from the cow it is to be treasured. the only additive allowed is horseradish.

[andyf]

Cabe you sound like the sort of person that would have Fish and Chips with mayonnaise or something, and not gravy!

[Swyft]

hell yea chips with mayo :p

and stop advocating the use of anything on a lump of dead cow! It makes baby Jesus cry!

[Pru]

fish and chips with mayo is really nice :P had it last night

[Cabe]

I'll have pie and chips with mushy peas and gravy, but not fish. thats an affront to battered cod everywere!

[pos]

cod deserves ketchup

[Elbonio]

Further to the first experiment.

I have discovered that Cherry Airwaves and unsweetened tea (english breakfast - I used PG tips) tastes like marzipan.

An important breakthrough.

[Neon]

MATRICIES!

[Ryvita]

Can't say I've tried it recently, but i seem to remeber that cleaning your teeth followed by eating salt & viniger crisps makes them taste like prawn cocktail.

Ryv

[Jingles]

You should get funding for your research, Mark

[bulletsponge]

lol,

get sponsership from google!!!!1

[Rich]

Try eating a spring onion then drinking a glass of milk. its a fantastic taste.

To further that anecdote, I provide the antonymous reaction to toothpaste (mint) and fresh orange juice, I dont know what it tastes like but its wrong....so very, very, wrong.

[Elbonio]

It tastes like a thousand suns dipped in acid.

[Cabe]

shudder.....cringles....

[shred_dog]

hmmmm... ELbonio, have you any hypothesis on the effects of mint schnapps and berry schnapps when consumed concurrently?

As for the topping of dead bovine issue, what do you put on this thing at the right???

That thing on the right looks like a bbq'd tumour.

[King-Kodiak]

If that were true, I don't want to know what it was removed from

hell yea chips with mayo :p

and stop advocating the use of anything on a lump of dead cow! It makes baby Jesus cry!

You are clearly missing the only acceptable addition to deceased bovine, and that would be the same addition to chips....MAYO FTW

Does that mean you could make a tumour-mayo sandwhich?

[shred_dog]

assumes schwarzeneggarian accent: "IT'S NAHT AH TOOOMAH!!"

Do you guys have Miracle Whip® there? mmmm better'n mayo on EVERYTHING. It comes in wasabi flavor now too :D

[Elbonio]

Acceptable things to put on Steaks:

A1 Sauce
Peppercorn Sauce

[King-Kodiak]

MAYO FFS GGWPKTHX

[pos]

mmm miracle whip, and brown mustard.
mmmm robin hood sammich

[shred_dog]

mmm miracle whip, and brown mustard.

This is a poor excuse for Mayonnaise.

[Demondan]

Mint gum + coke =yuk!

[bulletsponge]

On a similar note - Ever realised that tea cancels out any taste -

For example - if you brush your teeth, then have a few sips of tea before drinking orange juice - the taste is normal.
