Liberty Cabbage and Freedom Fries

Amazing the things you learn on the Leakest Wink. I thought the recent US silliness regarding french fries was an indication of how politics/propaganda of recent years has gone loopy. However it appears that during WWII sauerkraut was lovingly renamed to nothing less than Liberty Cabbage. It’s stupid – wars come and go and people still have to get on with each other afterwards. Why engender bigotism by renaming foodstuffs?! Admittedly we renamed the German Shepherd Dog the Alsatian, but at least we didn’t call it the “Brave Honour Dog” or something ridiculous, and most people were unaware the breed name switched. Boggling. :confused:

I’m halfway through my rats! 151 of 302. I did have 314 but I had to delete a few for lack of information and one person who thought they could fill it in with obviously fake info for a chance of winning the raffle. I do not be borned yesterday. 2 of the 302 are not too useful as they lack ages (it’s a study on longevity) which, assuming all the rest are useable, leaves me with a perfect 300. That’ll raise the suspicions of the examiners! :laugh:

Tis boring work though – I’ve been going for almost an hour and a half now and I’ve done 50 rats. Better crack on!
