On the Quiz itself= , mrs. badcrumble came out on top with 947, followed by&nb= sp;Priapetic in second with 934 and SoundOfOn= eHandWanking in third with 920. FormlessOne = made fourth with 918, and richh99 rounds out the top = five with 905. The hardest question on last week's Hard Quiz w= as about a recall of Skyline Chili, that cornerstone of every nutritious br= eakfast. Only 20% of quiztakers caught the article about the mislabeling at= the factory and knew that some of those cans might contain something close= r to actual sustenance than the label implied, that being Cream of Chicken = soup. I mean, I can only imagine the look of abject horror on the faces of = the consumers when they hit the can opener and are confronted with such a t= hing that they wouldn't even feed their pets who literally lick their own a= nuses. But I can certainly imagine the relief felt by the ones who got chic= ken soup instead. The easiest question on last week's Hard Qui= z was about the historical significance of the Amache site near Grenada in = Colorado. 77% of quiztakers knew that this was the site of one of the Japan= ese internment camps during WWII. For what it's worth, the 1956 = Chinese Confession Program ran by the FBI was administered through FBI head= quarters in Washington, DC, and the westernmost part of the Trail of Tears = is in Oklahoma, The hardest question on last week's Easy Quiz was ab= out the newest Coca-Cola flavor. Only 61% of quiztakers knew that you can s= oon get your hands on some raspberry flavored Coca-Cola Starlight befo= re posting your mandatory good review of it so you won't face being cut off= on social media. No word yet on Vought International's impending lawsuit o= r who thought the risk of facing down Homelander was worth it. The easiest question on last week's Easy Quiz was about Spaghetti Carbonar= a, which I'm pretty sure a really drunk 18th Century Italian guy invented w= hen he came home late one night with the munchies and tossed random st= uff out of his cold storage into to his frying pan. 88% of quiztakers knew = that the main ingredients of spaghetti carbonara are spaghetti noodles = ;and cured pork meat, such as bacon. And of course we put cheese on it beca= use that's how you know it's a successful Italian import. If y= ou missed out on last week's Quiz, you should definitely catch&= nbsp;up on the Fark Weird News Quiz now that you know a few of the = ;answers. Congratulations to the winners, and we'll be doing it all ag= ain on Friday. --------------------------------------------------------------- ([Fark.com](3D"") sent this newsletter emai= l to: {EMAIL}) To stop these emails, go to the Notifications tab of your [MyFark profile](3D"https:=) to change your subscription preferences.
