What a wonderful sentence:

"[The Supreme Court of the US] acknowledged the botanical reality of their fruithood, but ruled that in common understanding and usage, they are treated as vegetables and should be taxed as such."

(From an article about tomatoes, as read out by my boss this morning.)

In other news, I have betrayed the Marmite. I just had lemon curd on my toast.

Hmmm. A part of the brain which co-odinates "responses to extreme, terrifying danger", but blithely allows you to be boiled to death is, in my opinion, an evolutionary failure :)
