    The largest cell in the human body is the female egg and the smallest is the male sperm.

    #164 3 years ago
    Quoted from ImNotNorm:

    Yea it's just movies. Not stand up performances.

    Hydrox cookies debuted in the U.S. in 1908. The similar Oreo cookie, introduced in 1912, was a knockoff of the Hydrox. The Oreo eventually exceeded Hydrox in popularity, which resulted in the Hydrox being perceived as an imitator, although it was the original.

    Except for Schrödinger's potato, which is both a potato and not a potato at the same time.

    #188 3 years ago
    Quoted from jibmums:

    The 100 pleats in a Chef's hat represent 100 ways to cook an egg.

    #193 3 years ago
    Quoted from RWH:

    The 100 pleats in a Chef's hat represent 100 ways to cook an egg.

    That is interesting. I've never heard that one.

    #194 3 years ago
    Quoted from RWH:

    The 100 pleats in a Chef's hat represent 100 ways to cook an egg.

    Going to fact check that with a couple different chefs that I know. . .

    #195 3 years ago

    Or you could try, I dunno, Googling it?

    Turns out it's a myth (still interesting, but not a fact) or "cooking lore," as evidenced by the fact that "in Escoffier’s standard tome of French cooking, “Guide Culinaire” from 1903, you’ll find 143 ways to prepare an egg."

    Does the thread title need to distinguish between "true facts" and "alternative facts"?

    #196 3 years ago
    Quoted from DanQverymuch:

    Or you could try, I dunno, Googling it?

    Came off google under "did you know" and then I chose fun or interesting facts and it among others come up.

    Napoleon was only "French" because France annexed the Italian Island of Corsica just before he was born. Otherwise... he would have been considered Italian and would have been unable to attend the French Military Academy.
