Flower buds, not berries.

It boggles my mind to think that a judge had to spend his time writing a
whole 4-page opinion on this topic.

after writing long opinions every day about many silly things that never
should have ended up in court but appear more genuine, the judge probably
got a kick out of this one. I bet all his fellow judges were envious, and
shared their input over lunch. I bet every law clerk wanted in on it.

Next up is the chicken fried steak lawsuit. A friend told me that he had
some friends from India that didn't eat beef and he was mystified as to
why they would always order chicken fried steak at places like Denny's.
When he asked them, they were horrified to learn that chicken fried
steak was beef, not chicken. Having never tried this delicacy, I must
admit that I also always thought that it was chicken.

Isn't it okay if the beef is from downer cows?

Ah, a fine Texas invention, if I recall correctly. It's basically a
steak that you cook like a fried chicken. These days, what passes
as "Chicken Fried Steak" in restaurants is nothing more than a
ground beef patty dipped in breading and tossed in the deep fat
fryer. Can't find real steak anymore cooked that way. Not that
you'd want to -- the word I heard in Texas was that chicken-frying
steak was a means to disguise a low-quality cut of meat.

The chicken-fried steaks I've had appeared to be made
from cubed steak, which is usually made from a cheap
cut. It's only low-quality in the sense that it's
a cut that would otherwise be tough, not that it
would be in any way unwholesome as compared to more
expensive cuts.

It's a good way to prepare that meat. Done well,
chicken fried steak is certainly better than a
hamburger made from the same meat.

No, that would be Chicken Steak, Fried.

This thread has been eerie to me. I once knew someone who has the
plaintiff's name and I wouldn't put it past that person to do such a
thing. Ew.

They really need to publish pictures of these plaintiffs so that we can
point and laugh when we pass them on the sidewalk or see them in a store.

Maybe that would curb some of these ridiculous lawsuits.
