Is anyone really surprised by this? I’m not.

Roast Bung. He’s already well marinated.

Are there any calories in pinecones?

Is Rodney sweating or embarrassed?

What did Rodney do shoot the pinecone? His arrow is missing.

Whose idea was that little excursion?

Well at least they managed to get a fire going between them.

Actually heat releases the seeds, but are they nutritious?

Nice catch, Rodney!

You should brought supplies in the event that should happen, Rodney.

Pine cones don’t move, so Rodney could skewer one. I can hear all the little, edible animals giggling.

Ever eat a pine tree? Some parts are edible.

Ten internets to the first person to identify the speaker of this quote.

P.S. Pine cones contain pine nuts, which are quite nutritious, and tasty, too.

i remember Euell shilling for Grape Nuts.

@Ladyfingers86: You forgot to say that it’s a good source of fibers !!!

the King’s nose alone is even bigger than the pinecone. Put him on the Bar-B!!

Reminds me of Barney Fife in the woods from the old Andy Griffith Show

The King’s gonna roast you over a slow fire, Rodney.

(undoubtedly he knows, which is why he’s sweating)
