 Ubiquitous to All 
 Life Imitates Monty Python 
 29 Jul 12 09:16:19 
 
From: Ubiquitous 

Male Peasant: "She's bloody dying and all you bring us is lupins! All we've 
eaten, mate, for the last four bleeding weeks is lupin soup, roast lupin, 
steamed lupin, braised lupin in lupin sauce, lupin in the basket with sauteed 
lupins, lupin meringue pie, lupin sorbet! We sit on lupins, we sleep in 
lupins, we feed the cat on lupins, we burn lupins, we even wear the bloody 
things!"
	--from "Monty Python's Flying Circus," originally aired Jan. 4, 1973

    "Reaching for a packet of chips could be only half as fattening in the 
future thanks to a legume which was previously used to feed cows. Curtin 
University researchers have replaced wheat flour with lupin and created chips 
with 50 per cent less fat."
	--Sydney Morning Herald, July 27, 2012
