“I can taste the bananas from here.”
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Since we don’t grow a lot of bananas in this country maybe we need a new term like...corn republic...wheat republic...oh, I know, Tobacco Republic.
Recycled Republic? (We are enviro-friendly)
Because we do raise a lot of pigs, because Chicago was historically, if not recently, a big slaughtering and meat processing center, particularly of hogs and for other more contemporary reasons, might I suggest a "Pork Republic". :)
