Heh, I never thought to look at parts of words. I just figured it was some Native-Born-American Cultural Reference I was totally missing. Like why New York is the Big Apple. (Uh ... OK, whatever you say. Does it have worms?)

[elegantelbow.livejournal.com]

Heh. No, not a native-born cultural reference. Just one of those random things I remember from my childhood.

I also had an entire book of jokes about hamburgers.
