Sorry, next time I'll put a couple wrong answers so you feel better. Which US state could be considered the eggplant capital of the world since it produces two thirds of the eggplants grown worldwide?

yeah mate ya right - but not just bees - native bees Sugar Bag is native or wild honey and there are many types of native bees in Australia, and they don't sting! You find the hollow trees the bees live in and chop them down to get to the hive.

If you are dining in an Indian restaurant and a dish has the word “Sag” in the description, what widely disliked food will it contain?

Ok, what was the original filling used in Twinkies and why was it replaced with the current vanilla flavoured filling. (I always thought Twinkies were 100% chemicals since they seem to have a shelf life of about a thousand years. I think they're nasty things but some people love them.)
