"Holy Turkey, Batman". We'll have to inform Alfred about this!

The fact that 'Buffalo Wild Wings' don't come from Buffalos probably impacts the coin community more than this revelation.
You do know they come from chickens, don't you?
bawwccckkkk! bawwccckkkk!!
Imagine my surprise when I found out that Jack-in-the-Box "Monster Tacos" weren't actually made of monster....(allegedly).
So is Turkish Taffy really Swedish?
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
They sell many millions on Super Bowl Sunday. Then again Buffalo nickel doesn't come from New Yawk!

After 2 glasses of Louis Roederer Cristal, I can't tell if the third one is a Schramsberg Blanc de Blanc.
My Yiddishe nana's Swedish meatball recipe involved Heinz ketchup and Welch's grape jelly
A friend owns a glatt kosher Chinese restauarant.
We should build a Wall before globalization proceeds to the point where Carlos Slim buys Taco Bell, but it's likely too late to keep them from using Argentinian beef.
Charmy can match up your buffalo steak with a good Clos de Bois Cabernet or Chilean Shiraz. I'm not worried
Turkey birds come from Mexico.

And there are a slew of folks collecting Liberty in Indian Head Dress cents and they don't know it.
The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!

I'm probably one of the few people on these boards that just likes healthy food like Trader Joes sells; but I have noticed the same in a lot of "intellectual" hobbies that the members like junk food.
When I lived in London, english muffins were no where to be found. And I doubt French toast or french fries (which I believe are Belgian) originated in France.
And beware; Rocky Mountain oysters do not come out of a shell!

Depends on the age of the source ?
Years ago in Laredo, Texas, I happened upon a small shop party on a Friday afternoon. They were BBQing out back so I moseyed on back and asked, "What's cooking?" "Armadillo" came the reply...skeptical I replied, "Armadillo?" "As a matter of fact, it's Armadillo on the half shell, lift the lid and take a look see" so I did and sure enough, the armadillo meat was mixed with spices and sauces and was roasting in the armadillo shell. I did not stick around to taste this delight, I prefer my armadillo running around.

News like this must make IKEA thankful their stock isn't publicly traded.
That's just nuts.
Oh no... Cultural appropriation abounds.... Aaaahhhhh the humanity....
Just laughing at the current ridiculous snowflake offending issues. Now, Armadillo is actually quite tasty... I had the opportunity to try it when I lived in Florida.... Cheers, RickO
Armadillo snout has been used in Asian medicine for millennia as a male-sexuality enhancement.
Snowflake curmudgeons like myself seem to be able to rationalize objections about "cultural appropriation" when a greater social good can be identified.
