Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. For this guest I will be serving a fruitcake - the nuttier the better! This "mad" man probably didn't spend much time in a monastery - probably at most three months, despite what his nickname suggests. Let's hope he can drag himself away from the Russian Tsarina for one night. Who is he?
2. For this next guest, I have just Googled whether "beefcake" is a bona fide dish. This man was crowned "Mr. Olympia" for six years running between 1970 and 1975, winning it again in 1980. Hardly a one-trick pony, he then turned his hand to acting, and later to politics. Who is he?
3. It has to be the Irish dish champ for this champ. This man surpassed Pete Sampras in 2005 to become the man with the most men's singles Grand Slam tennis titles. What is his name?
4. A quick bit of research on my next guest tells me that he claims to be the first man to have reached the North Pole. His dish - Arctic roll, obviously. Who is he?
5. I'll have to brush up on my literature if I am to engage my next guest in conversation at the party. I was going to prepare an orange cheesecake, but have decided to make it with a variety toppings, since oranges are not the only fruit. Who is this guest?
6. I'm not sure what to serve my next guest but I know it'll be served under a cloche. Is the meal under there or isn't it? He'll only know once the cloche is lifted. He'll love it. Who is he?
7. For my next guest, I am preparing mock-turtle soup. I stress the "mock" on the menu to reassure this guest that he needn't worry about such a turtle somehow causing his untimely demise. Who is this guest?
8. This next guest is an unfussy eater (to say the least!), making my job a lot easier. This Frenchman is believed to have eaten anything that was placed in front of him, including rubber, glass, and even a coffin! What is his name?
9. For this next guest, I've decided to avoid anything to do with the battle of Waterloo and so have ruled Beef Wellington and Chicken Marengo off of the menu. In the end, I've decided to serve up a cherry tart topped with the cherry named after this very man. What is his name?
10. I know my final guest from films such as "Too Hot to Handle" and "The Girl Can't Help It", but I am reliably informed that she also held the title of "High Priestess of San Francisco's Church of Satan". Devil's Food Cake it is, then. Who is this final guest?
