We have nothing else in the house with a nutrition label besides oil and
vinegar, so I will resort to my nutrition textbook's appendix.

This is a seasonal food.  Should be easy to guess.

This should be very easy to guess, especially if you have been reading other
items.  What has no cholesterol, lots of fat and fiber, and is eaten one ounce
at a time?  And is seasonal?
remmers
response 342 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 10 12:04 UTC 1998

Whatever it is has 7 gm of protein too. There aren't too many
vegetable foods with a nutrition profile like that. Too much
fat for tofu, though...  <remmers ponders>
keesan
response 343 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 10 22:51 UTC 1998

Tofu has a lot more water.

No. But they do fit all my clues and we have a lot of them.  Chestnuts are,
I think, mostly carbohydrate rather than fat.
keesan
response 346 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 16 19:48 UTC 1998

Someone please name all the seasonal foods for this month.
i
response 347 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 17 01:57 UTC 1998

Pumpkin, cranberries, turkey, "yams", perhaps various sorts of nuts,
>next, please< 
keesan
response 348 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 18 23:09 UTC 1998

The answer is in one of those things you listed.
i
response 349 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 19 01:02 UTC 1998

Pumpkin seeds, cranberry seeds, turkey innards, or am i taking your "in"
too literally?
keesan
response 350 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 19 18:58 UTC 1998

Nope, you got it (the first guess).  This delicacy was being discussed in
detail in another item at the time I chose it.  Turkey innards have
cholesterol.  Seeds don't.
I told you this one was easy.
i
response 351 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 20 02:10 UTC 1998

Trust keesan to be eating unsalted pumpkin seeds! 

5 demerits for i for not checking on the cholesterol in #340.

Anyone else want to enter a mystery food?
keesan
response 352 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 20 23:52 UTC 1998

Vegans don't eat a lot of cholesterol.  We cook our own seeds, no salt needed.
I really tried hard to make this one easy.
remmers
response 353 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 21 11:44 UTC 1998

Since cholesterol is found only in animal products, I'd think
that vegans eat zero cholesterol.
i
response 354 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 21 20:24 UTC 1998

Last i knew, keesan (and Jim) would occasionally eat ovo-lacto stuff
(cholesterol, not that turkey innards qualify).  I've talked to a
number of vegans who are (or claim to be) far more interested in the 
"no exploiting or abusing animals" aspect than in non-consumption of
animal products.  Some of them come across as willing to try steak & 
eggs at a farmer's dinner table if they knew & approved of the way 
that Buttercup & the hens were treated......

Anyone interested in entering a new mystery food?

Jim is trying not to abuse the planet.

  I'll enter something by midnight tommorow. Get your thinking caps out, 
I promise you that it will not be easy.
omni

  OK get out your thinking caps.

Frozen orange juice?
keesan
response 359 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 25 20:08 UTC 1998

Sugar with Vit C added and maybe some flavoring.  Koolaid?  Or some other
premixed sugar-water drink.
omni
response 360 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 25 20:19 UTC 1998

 remmers is in the neighborhood.

 No, it is NOT kool-aid. 
keesan
response 361 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 27 17:05 UTC 1998

Orange juice or any other real juice does not have 100% of any vitamin, this
looks like they added some exact amount.  Or else the 100% figure is wrong.
I have seen apple juice with Vit C added.
omni
response 362 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 28 10:02 UTC 1998

  Well this could go on for years, but essentially remmers got it.
It's cranberry uice.

 take it rembo.

Oh no! 

(Actually, I've given my share recently, I think. If somebody wants to
jump in with a new puzzler, please feel free. If nobody does, and I
haven't completely forgotten about it, maybe I'll post something in a
few days...)
