Re: Quiz night 20 Jan


Well done
Beetles are the group of insects with the largest number of known species. They are classified in the order Coleoptera (pronounced /ˌkəʊliˈɒptərə/; from Greek κολεός, koleos, "sheath"; and πτερόν, pteron, "wing", thus "sheathed wing"), which contains more described species than in any other order in the animal kingdom, constituting about 25% of all known life-forms.[1] 40% of all described insect species are beetles (about 350,000 species[1]), and new species are frequently discovered. Estimates put the total number of species, described and undescribed, at between 5 and 8 million

Re: Quiz night 20 Jan


Alison thinks pasta

the answer is - cheese
Taleggio cheese
[tahl-EH-zhee-oh]
Hailing from Italy's Lombardy region, this rich (48 percent fat), semisoft cheese is made from whole cow's milk. Its flavor can range from mild to pungent, depending on its age. When young, Taleggio's color is pale yellow and its texture semisoft. As it ages it darkens to deep yellow and becomes rather runny. Taleggio is sold in flat blocks or cylinders and is covered either with a wax coating or a thin mold. It's excellent with salad greens or served with fruit for dessert

It's such a shame - nearly all cheeses are really bad if you're dieting.
