Try to think of the most popular answer, to get the most people matching you. You don't want a unique answer, you have to answer with what you think everyone else will put.

If you need to comment or clarify a question then do it in thread please. And if you could reply once you've sent a PM it'd keep the thread alive Thanks!

Write your answers like this...

Do not repeat the questions, no periods at the end of answers, no spaces between lines, no comments, no fancy list coding. Thanks.

JUST LIKE THIS:

2. Kathy Wells

Those who don't reply like this will have 20 points removed for giving me extra work.

btw, I took Q1 to mean a particular ethnic dish as opposed to a particular ethnicity. Was this what you meant?

For information :

1. Name a popular type of ethnic food

You can answer either with a location that a type of popular type ethnic food comes from or a dish in particular, it's really up to you what you think other people will answer.

For those that answered 'curry' for question 1, I'm going to consider that you mean an Indian curry unless otherwise stated in the PM okay?

If you put down 'curry' but you didn't mean Indian then just PM me.

8. Name a brand of cereal

It's a brand folks, not a type or cereal If you said something like 'General Mills' then that's fine, "General Mills - Frosty O's " ok, but not just the type i.e. "Frosty O's"

I must admit that I'm surprised by how many different types of French foods have been given and it seems that my answer for the fast food chain is really out though I thought that it was the answer everyone would give !

Done. Good work once again Ponster .

The answers to the ethnic dish should be interesting, lots to choose form there. I could only think of two French dishes, I just know I chose the wrong one.
