| Actually, "legume" is French for "vegetable", so ANY vegetable is a legume. I don't know how this trend of calling specific types of vegetables "legumes" came about. I always think it's very strange when I hear people referring to "vegetables AND legumes". It's like referring to "cars AND automobiles".  ----------- | |

| Well if "legume" is French for vegetable then that means that legumes are only the French vegetables.....you know like french-fries, or french-style greenbeans....

Well, grapes grow in France... are they a legume? And by the way, French Fries are legumes? Hmmm... I guess I like legumes after all!  -------- | |

Lightning bolts and nuns... OK, that's just weird... I'm suddenly picturing a Catholic nun being hit by a lightning bolt... that just doesn't seem right! I hope it's not my aunt Rita (she's a nun) who's getting hit by lightning... --------
