U.S. Congress decided recently that anything with two tablespoons of tomato sauce is now classified as a vegetable. This include pizza. (French fries was already considered a vegetable.)

Apparently I like vegetables much more than I thought.

Historically, sweat has been an active ingredient in perfume and love potions.

Whispering is more wearing on your voice than a normal speaking tone.

Worms reportedly taste like bacon. (I’m in no hurry to find out for myself!)

The famous aphrodisiac 'Spanish Fly' is made from dried beetle remains! (Again, I’m in no hurry to find out!)

The inventor of Vaseline ate a spoonful of the stuff every morning!

Tablecloths were originally meant to be served as towels with which dinner guests could wipe their hands and faces after eating!

In Tokyo, they sell toupees for dogs!

Months that begin on a Sunday will always have a 'Friday the 13th'.

A violin contains about 70 separate pieces of wood!

According to U.S. FDA standards, 1 cup of orange juice is allowed to contain 10 fruit fly eggs, but only 2 maggots.

A lot of lovemaking can unblock a stuffy nose. Sex is a natural antihistamine. It can help combat asthma and hay fever.

99% of people cannot lick their elbow.

It does explain when I'm single my hayfever kicks in! LOL!

The Japanese do have some very odd traits when it comes to certain things....my Japanese houuse make gave me a boyfriend pillow as a gift. I wasn't sure what to do with it whilst at the same time not offend her....I made a pink 'shirt' to fit it and explained why. Fortunately she was very understanding about it, lol!
