Answers:
The Battle of the Oranges, Ivrea, Italy
The residents of this north-west Italian town have a more violent approach to fruit throwing!. Just before Lent every year they spend a few days throwing oranges at each other with scarcely concealed bloodlust!. The oranges supposedly symbolise the head of an ancient duke who was beheaded by a local objecting to his ducal "right" to sleep with any of the town's women!. One thing is for certain, though: the oranges really hurt, especially when it's cold and they're nearly frozen!.
The Night of the Radishes, Oaxaca, Mexico
While most of us prefer Christmas Eve, the residents of Oaxaca have their big celebration on December 23!. For some unknown reason, thought to be linked to Spanish missionaries, they live it up by sculpting radishes into all manner of weird and wonderful forms - from small woodland animals to scale models of carnivals!. And then, within 24 hours, it's all gone to waste as the radishes - some of which are chemically enhanced so that they're half a metre long - start to rot!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
