Poll question: Edible Buildings: Great Idea or Greatest Idea?
Edited on Wed Aug-18-10 08:21 PM by Boojatta
After a housing bubble, homes won't be wastefully vacant. They will be put to good use feeding the hungry.

... and they shall beat their shacks into shortbread and their plasterwork into prune pudding. Banks shall not sell credit default swaps to other banks, neither shall they learn to sell sub-prime mortgages any more.

Isaiah 2:4 (King James Version)

1. I'd be leery of living in a shortbread house.
Those kinder infestations would be maddening.

2. Sure, but if you bake them properly, after a bit of fattening up, they're
probably pretty tasty. Just watch out for the smart ones...

6. I don't know about that
I seem to remember something about a candy house, a wicked witch, and an oven.

10. Depends. Will construction pay enough to support American Doozers,
or will illegal Mexican Doozeros undercut wages?
