"High praise coming from you! Hope you won't be veery bittern about it."

No, no, it's owl part of the thread. I B is fine with that pun as any other.

They can tell if the bird's head was really in the can prior to it being opened!

If the head was part of the beans it will be saturated with the fliuds in the beans, not just coated with the fluids.

La Preferida Inc. said Friday night it would recall a “limited number” of its 15-ounce cans of whole pinto beans

Just the ones with bird heads in them?

I just saw the one pun--and it's driving me raven mad that you are calling it a treble pun. Please explain.

Yep. Heads only, no claws or wings, heads only.

I'll bet she's looking for the goose that lays the golden eggs.

My uncle was grinding hamburger and the pencil he kept behind his ear fell into the meat grinder. He kept right on grinding the HB.

"..she found the bird’s head Thursday while preparing breakfast...
I think people who want beans for breakfast should rather eat bird's heads.

I bet she wonders why her kids are unpopular in school, and nobody wants to sit near them. Beans and eggs, that will produce some ripe ones...

"Ever curious about the stuff that gets ground up with the wheat that ends up in your toast?"

Nope. I just try not to think about it. I sat on a combine plenty in my day and saw all sorts of critters being swallowed along with the swath. Grasshoppers (plenty of those) field mice, goose poo, small birds, left over kill from owls and hawks etc. Most of it gets blown out the other end of the combine, small bits get stuck to the kernel though.

It gets screened several times before it gets turned into your favorite cereal, so what's left is microscopic, Then it's mashed up, cooked and processed so there really nothing to worry about.

That jar of spagetti sauce, ketchup, or tomato juice has way more bug juice in it. V8 vegetable juice probably has the widest variety of bug juice of all. It's all good protien.
