You poor people who can't appreciate the greatness of teh coconut? http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_disapprove.gif

A taro-root is:
The word taro (as well as dasheen, malanga, and other names) is applied to quite a number of starchy tropical tubers--all of them high-carbohydrate foods that are staples in the Pacific islands, Asia, the Caribbean, Africa, and parts of South America. Taro root's most familiar use is in poi, a sticky taro paste eaten in Hawaii. One of the more common forms of taro is a roughly cylindrical brown-skinned root with white or pale purple flesh.

http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif Taro root has a nice flavour when made into desserts like ice cream, but just boil it with water and dip a bit of soya sauce on it makes it an excellent snack also! http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

No. The favouring won't work with lime. But I'd kill for a glass of Limenade. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

[Logical2u]

Who would you kill? There are a few choice targets at the moment...

*Holds Limanade tantalyzingly close, but then drops it accidently.*

Ah... never mind.

[navci]

I would kill a lime. I think. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_nono.gif you have gotten more http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_nono.gif from me then anyone I know http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_nono.gif

anyhow, I don't like coconuts, and despite the definition, don't know what the hell a taro is, is it a root or a fruit? Although I guess it could be like a potatoe and be the root, but that's a vegetable.

[navci]

I think taro-root is a vegetable. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

You know, in some Latin-based languages, potatoes are refered to as the "Apples of the Earth."
