Calculator Chili?Posted by Michael on 31 January 2004, 00:58 GMT
 Hormel Foods Corporation has recalled its canned chili product because of external contamination. What was 104,000 pounds of chili contaminated with - Mad Cow Disease? No. Calculators. Sixteen states now have extra-special, super-mathematical cans of chili on their grocery shelves. In unrelated events, a former ticalc.org staff member has reported that Nick lost his graphing calculator last week. After an unsuccessful attempt at late-night cow tipping, Nick was performing bovine mass computations. Upon leaving the pasture, he was subsequently unsure as to where had left his beloved 86. |  |

I suppose that USA Today posts "Fake News"
 The link shows a USA Today article which talks about a TRUE CHILI RECAL DUE TO CALCULATOR PARTS CONTAMINATING CHILI.
 
 I suppose you still don't believe it.  (though I doubt it was a calculator which someone lost ... correct me if I'm wrong, I didn't read the whole story.)
