Dandelions make a good salad, but I didn't think so when I was a kid. Corn (maize) is a grain, and so on. I suppose Vodka is potatoes, but I'd rather not go there or we would have to let poteen (puh-CHEEN) in as well and that thought sends shivers up my spine. ....Is there a booze-in-titles list ?

Also Catcher in the Rye?

'Rye' isn't a vegetable, as far as I'm aware (and it certainly isn't a fruit...). The description says 'OK, grains too, but don't go crazy with it.' but still... Grains should have been in the title then, in my opinion.
