They're making this up surely

Quarter of adults don't know that bacon comes from pigs, survey shows

Surely everyone knows that bacon comes from the bacon counter and sausages from the butchery dept in Sainsburys

If the pig farmer knows and the pigs don't, is it really important? lol:

The Boy has an aversion to seed in things (bread and the like). I pointed out to him a while back that chips are made from seeds!!

He thought about that for a long time confused:

When the school instructed all twelve year olds (Boys and Girls) to bring a banana to school on a certain day and then the school nurse issued each child a condom and instructed them in how to fit it over the banana I decided that I couldn't compete with such stupidity.

Daughter tells me that some boys blushed, some girls giggled and one enterprising pair were sent to the headteacher because the girl suggested the boy had a "stiffy" and she would rather practice with that!

And before anyone else says it I have no idea how fitting a condom over a banana is going to prevent my daughter from getting pregnant and neither does she.

Perhaps she has a Chinese boyfriend?
