Frozen embryos.
Not a snack for a hot day though!
A gag reflex here from me.
That's sort of like snacking on candled eggs after they came back in as inviable, warm out of the incubator.
Maybe caviar
9, you are rolling the egg along the wrong turnpike my friend.Quote:

Yeah, in circles!
Virgin birth?
Not the answer I seek, but it does fit part of the riddle.Quote:

The answer is in disguise as it keeps moving past your eyes. :wtf: (hint)
Artificial insemination?
The pregnancy line of thought is the wrong path.Quote:

The 'past your eyes' clue was a reference to Louis Pasteur, i.e pasteurized.
I so do love word play!
Great riddle! I got the "pasteurized" hint, which led me to milk, which led me to cows, which led me to artificial insemination.
Your second hint got me off the pregnancy train of thought. I first thought of bacteria (as pasteurization kills bacteria), then of mitosis (Some Instant Offspring, Disregarding Procreation), and then the "approved but disproved" made me think of spontaneous generation (how people used to think maggots spontaneously emerged from rotten meat, and that was disproved by Redi). I got the wrong scientist, but the right idea. :)
Thanks for the riddle.

Good work!
Having lived and worked on an New England farm, artificial insemination still gives me a shudder.
Elbow plus deep in a cow's rectum while the the other hand does the procreation magic.
I doubt that Jon could even say 'I saw that once in a porno'. :emot-roflolmao:
Wait!!
Spontaneous Generation has been proven wrong???!!!?
So much for fishin' worms coming from horse tail hairs.
I need to get out more!
You use hookworms for fishin'? :emot-roflolmao:Quote:
