Perhaps we should furnish them a clue Tony? I would say that Rubl is sooooooo close to the answer. |

Can we run the next weekend mid month quiz at the start of the month on a Wednesday?
Seems there are only two here and it is fast approaching my bed time.

Oh God thank you, at least he didn't comment on texture and colour  All good now thanks Rubl. The doctor cleared my sinuses and I get fitted with hearing aids next week. So for one more week we have to shout at you? No problem  |

OK, ok, one more to Rubl,a Gryphon is lion and half Eagle.
Easy one now, Can't remember the question number so I will call this question 8 and we can go on from there.
Q8/. How much sugar do sugar free tic-tacs contain?

A trick question, I'm sure it's a trick question, but where's the trick? Or should I call it a tic? By Jove, I get a sense of déjà vu, I already gave the answer before the question was asked  bigmango.boards.net/post/160353 |

No, not zero. The shocking thing is that sugar free tic-tacs are mainly made up of sugar. Federal regulation states that if an individual serving size has more than .5 grams of sugar, it has to be reported as such, but any less and the serving is “technically” sugar free because the manufacturer is allowed to report the sugar content as zero. Tic Tac is able to make the claim that its pure sugar breath mint is sugar free simply because the mint weighs less than the amount needed to report the sugar content in the first place.  |

Well, if it doesn't count it's zero. That may not be mathematically correct, but when your favorite football team scores and the referee say 'no' for whatever reason you've got a big zero as well even if the ball is still laying in the goal. A trick question for sure. Mind you I learned something new |

I know we need to be friendly and help our colonial cousins, but this goes to far. Yours truly, R.U. Bl Esq. PS did you know that there's a Banghoek in the Stellenbosch area? No Samoerpakan though. |

Again, cryptic answer but pointing in the correct direction, it is indeed South Africa.
Break now, back in about an hour.
