I was making the bed this morning absent-mindedly listening to the University of Indianapolis' radio program "Too Many Cooks." In each program they have a 'culinary condundrum' in which they ask a puzzler and invite listeners to call in. Today they were talking about beans and my ears perked up because I'd just been reading a back issue of my Cooking Light magazine that was full of bean soup recipes.
The condundrum was "What bean has a natural seam that divides it in two when dried?"
I called and was told that someone beat me to the punch.
However, if I wanted I could stay on the line in case the answer was wrong. I hesitated because I thought the answer was so easy that no way could anyone not get it. But I stayed on hold anyway and lo and behold! the caller got the answer wrong and I got to go on the radio live and give the correct answer!!!The dejay said she wasn't paying attention to the prize info either so neither of us know what I'm getting. It'll be a surprise.
So does anyone else know the answer? And has anyone else ever called in to a radio station to ask a question or offer an opinion?
I was hoping my prize would be a nice gift certificate for two at an Indianapolis restaurant!!!
What do I win?
