You’re not suggesting that Iowans actually eat that arugula, are you?

I don’t know but getting mesclun and arugula at the Farmer’s Market has become a chore. By the time I get there, all the good greens are gone! I barely got the last bag of arugula so some Iowans must be eating it. Maybe they bought a whole bunch for a meeting of the Communist Party.
I wouldn’t be caught dead with anything but Marche, Chard and Spinach shoots in my sallad. Especially not arugula - I got bored with that stuff years ago.

Iowans are REAL Americans! They don’t eat foo foo lettuce. They ship it all to the tree-hugging California hippies and the bleeding heart pinko liberal New York Jews. Iowans eat iceberg lettuce, just like God wants them to.

As an Iowan I can tell you that if you put it with a thick pork chop or Steak DeBurgo, garlic mashed potatoes and corn on the cob we will eat any damn lettuce you want. But we’re elitist that way.
Even better: fry it in batter, put it on a stick and sell it at the fair.

You Commie pinko liberal! It’s types like you who will bring this nation to it’s knees with it’s exotic organic greens salads and foo-foo bottled teas! The real American patriots eat wedges of iceberg lettuce doused in ranch dressing and Bac-O-Bits regardless of the utter lack of nutritional value. That’s what John McCain would eat–that is, if he wasn’t getting all of his nutrition from a direct feed of processed protein mush through his cybernetic implants.

That hideous iceberg stuff is unfortunately very popular with the riffraff around here as well, it really should be outlawed.
Ad can be viewed at the link. I have to say that is a very silly ad indeed. Not only was I laughing at the silliness of it but at the end when it said “He mad be the one but is he ready to lead?” My immediate internal voice said “sure looks like it to me”.

You know, I work in TV commercial production and unfortunately I’ve been led to believe that 90% of the creative teams must be on crack or suffer oxygen deprivation to the brain (possibly both) but the people coming up with this adds sure are at the bedrock bottom of the pile.
So McCain uses a photo of Paris Hilton in “The One” ad. I wonder if McCain realizes Paris’ father, Rick Hilton has donated $4300 to the McCain campaign.

My thoughts exactly, speaking as a Minnesota Catholic turned Illinois Lutheran (neither group knows how to cook). I’ve never had fried Arugula (abbreviated to “rocket” 'round these parts), but it sounds edible, quite unlike a wedge of Iceberg and a spoonful of Miracle Whip. Especially with the breading.
