Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Approximately what percentage of the American population has worked at McDonald's?

Answer: One Eighth

We've all got to start somewhere.

2. How far can you stretch one ounce of gold when it is heated to the point of flexibilty?

5. If you yelled consistently for 11 years, 6 months, 18 days, and 12 minutes, you would generate enough power to do what?

Answer: Warm a cup of coffee

Hardly seems worth it, does it?

Twisties were going to be cheese flavoured chips. But, the machine malfunctioned and created the unusual shaped treats we know today.
