Default Guess this Riddle?

The Riddle: "A box without hinges, key, or lid — yet golden treasure inside is hid."

Can you guess what this miracle is?

The answer is, of course: The Egg.

It is the perfect food, the source of many crucial natural health- boosting vitamins, minerals and other substances: Protein, folate, B-vitamins, choline, and vision-enhancing carotenoids, and heart-healthy Omega-3 fatty acids to name a few. And it's also got an average of only 70 calories apiece — tailor- made for dieting purposes.

Yet for years, the mainstream has demonized eggs as though they were only slightly less harmful than rat poison! Why? Because of the erroneous belief — spurred by the carbohydrate-corrupted machine of conventional medicine — that eggs increase cholesterol and contribute to heart disease.

Lately, however, the mainstream has begun to lighten up on eggs — and even to endorse them, in guarded ways. For instance, an MSNBC on-line article cited a study of over 120,000 women that revealed a measurable correlation between an egg-rich diet during adolescence and a reduced risk of breast cancer. It seems that eating at least three eggs weekly as a teenager decreased incidence of breast cancer later in life by 18 percent!

That's right: All those misguided teenagers who gravitate to vegetarianism for its cruelty-free symbolism are actually setting themselves up for cancer — not to mention all the other health issues that go with a no-fat diet…

A decade ago, healthy news like this would have been buried under a ton of low-fat propaganda and ads for bread-making machines. But because of the emergence of the 30-year-old dietary wisdom of the late, great Dr. Robert Atkins and his like-minded peers, this story and others like it about the benefits of eggs, meat, full-fat milk and butter, and unprocessed whole foods — yes, even grains in moderation — can now see the light of day.

Who knows: Maybe in another 30 years, vegetarianism will be viewed as the child abuse it is...

Just food for thought.

Cheers,
D

I don't know really, good question. You might want to take that up with J.R.R.Tolkien, he wrote the fucking riddle, not me. I was just using it as a lead-in for the story.

I was thinking the skull, but I guess an egg works just as well.

I'll have to remember that e-mail address. I was curious as to what has happened to Bilbo in the last 50 years. LOL

If that was a pu**y, and you found a golden treasure inside, then you may want to get checked for clamidia.

Anyway, you should always use the scratch method before venturing in dark places. ya, know...stick your fingers down there and then pretend to scratch your nose (whilst secretly taking a good long sniff) just to make sure things are kosher.

I've gotten myself outta plenty of jams by using that baby!!
