Green Ham and Eggs

I'm sure everyone remembers that wonderful classic "Green Eggs and Ham" by the children's book author Dr. Suess, right? Who could forget such classic lines as these:

I do not like them in a box.
I do not like them with a fox.
I do not like them in a house.
I do not like them with a mouse.
I do not like them here or there.
I do not like them anywhere.
I do not like green eggs and ham.
I do not like them, Sam-I-am.

Well times, they are a-changin'. Now you can have green HAM and eggs. Everyone together now, say "Thank you" to the nice Taiwanese scientists and their green pigs. I'm still wondering on the whole glow-in-the-dark aspect. How many of you eat your ham and bacon in the dark?

2 I'm sure there's a real reason to do this, not "because we could"

I'm pressed to figure out what it could be

3 Doesn't everyone's food glow in the dark?!?

Wait... not everyone lives near a nuke plant...

4 Bring your green ham, Machelle!

And birdwoman -- it was related to tracking parts of the pig's body, similar to other things they inject you with to look for injuries and such. This one was related to DNA.

And T1G, I just today bought some more mint jelly -- nothing like bringing a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to work -- that's bright green!

5 you do realize that this is actually a CIA operation, where we will drop these pigs throughout Muslim areas. Since they glow in the dark, Muslims will never have a moment of peace, even at night. Will drive them all bonkers.

6 Teach? Do you need to go to sensitivity class?

7 No, I am already insensitive enough, thank ye

Told a guy over at Julie B's to F off.

9 Hey, one of those pigs would be great for a St. Patrick's Day pit barbecue! The pork would go down well with a Guinness or six.

10 After 6, the pigs aren't the only thing that start to look green...but you will be very hard-pressed to find a good Irish celebration here in Charlotte, unfortunately.

Each year I debate running one -- a GOOD one with actual IRISH music.
