I know there are people on my friends list who can read the labels, identify the foodstuffs, or both. Come on, people! Show us what you got!

I wouldn't assume that the labels aren't actually the conventional names for those foods just because the translations don't make sense to us. A literal translation of "buttercup" or "baby's breath", or, for that matter, "eggplant", would probably be equally confusing.

But point taken: knowing what the labels say may not necessarily tell us what the things actually are. :-)
