A 'fruit and veg' based higher or lower quiz

In one of my upcoming books which I'm currently writing, one of the characters likes to stay healthy by exercising regularly and growing his own food.*

* More things happen that just that, though. He doesn't spend the entire book just gardening and exercising, obviously. That would be a boring book! Don't worry, there are other more radical plot devepements as well, such as brain transplants and vengeful motivations.

Water melon.
The topic of the first question in this week's quiz.

I often like to use themes from my books as inspiration for blog posts, and this week is no different, as this week's blog post is a true or false quiz for anyone who similarly likes to grow their own fruit and veg.

1) Water content

As you'd expect, water melon contains a lot of water (the clue is in the name), and in fact is made up of 92% water! However, it's not the only fruit and veg which is high in water content. Iceberg lettuce is another food containing a high percentage of water.

But how much water exactly? Does iceberg lettuce contain a higher or lower water percentage than water melon?

Higher or lower?

My 500th blog post!

This week the Charles Fudgemuffin blog reaches a significant landmark ... it's my 500th blog post!

So as I often like to do, I thought I would feature a higher or lower quiz, and in keeping with this week's landmark, every question has a 500 theme to it.

"We're going to need a bigger tape measure."

1) World's fattest man

The average man weighs around 88.8 kilograms, but of course not everyone is average. Some people are skinny, and some people are, er ... 'plus sized'.

But what did the fattest man of all time weigh? Was it more than 500 kilograms, or less than 500 kilograms?

For the benefit of anyone who prefers pounds, 500 kilograms is equivalent to 1,102.3 pounds, so it's very heavy indeed!

Higher or lower?
