As much as I agree with that, no. :no

Hint: It's something that's edible and can be found in a grocery store or market. :Hint

Aside comment:

Because jjohn said:
Hint: It's something that's edible and can be found in a grocery store or market. :Hint
I am assuming that the entire acronym refers to one object, not two. This would imply the "C" word is another adjective, rather than another noun.

For example:

Chewy
And
Large
Macadamia Nuts

Sorry folks, I have been having some computer issues and didn't get a chance to verify any more last night.

Without creating a lot of extra posts, I will say that Hikari got the M right by guessing Melons. I will have to owe you a point, since I can't seem to get any from the bar.

The only letter left is "C".

Thanks, Jim

My apologizes. I should have thought out the hint better. It should have said "They're something that's edible and can be found in a grocery store or market." I wasn't thinking it would be taking literally for grammar, but was merely pointing to a place to find them.

Kevin, thanks for pointing that out, I will remember that in future clues. If I had a point I would give you one. Do you want to take another guess, since my hint mislead you?

Thanks, Jim

We have another winner! Again, I do not have any points and will have to owe Hikari, Jason and Kevin 1 point each.

Chaco, since you got the first two correct, it's your turn.
Thanks, Jim

Offgame: Thanks again. I guess I helped too many and ran out. I keep clicking and clicking the bar and no points have come out in a long while.

Well, gee. Thanks.

Unfortunately, I happen to be a bit low on mod points. Is this okay or should I pass to somebody who has them?

I think it's okay to go ahead, there are a lot of games and contests that everyone seems to be participating in. I'm sure everyone will understand if you don't give out a point of two right away, but that just my opinion since I was in that boat too. :~(

No, it didn't mislead me. I was almost certain the C would be either an adjective or a noun, and was simply pointing out that it was also possible that it was an adjective, since just about every guess up to that point had it as another noun.

[Off Topic]: I agree congrats Kevin_P86. I can only hope that it was due to this game, and the point that Jason gave you, which should have come from me. [Off Topic]
