And my mind immediately went to the possibility of beer can scale mail...

It's been done. I've seen it at Faires. Please make sure you wash the cans thoroughly. *yuk*

Is your mysterious tuber-like thing yucca perhaps? Because I love that stuff! I roast it like potatoes, but I've had it deliciously fried at Cuban restaurants too.

Elrond Buzzkillington won't let us make Rivendell armor from beer cans. He says it's undignified. Celeborn prefers to make his from stainless steel kegs because he's trying to give Glorfindel a run for his money as the Chuck Norris of the elves.

Turns out it's a daikon. Which is not at all like a parsnip, like I guessed, but a giant radish. So ... My root vegetable salad may turn out spicier than anticipated.

My mom nearly poisoned herself eating raw taro - make sure you cook that sucker! :-)

Ha, yeah, I've been reading up on how to cook taro properly to avoid poisoning myself!
