Friday Trivia: Challenge #7 — Test Your Knowledge

Friday Trivia is back with a brand-new round! You have four chances to win this month, and I’ll be announcing the winner on December 30th so I don’t interrupt anyone’s holiday plans. I promise I won’t forget this time.

The prize for this month will be revealed on the 15th. Any guesses?

Have you started your Christmas baking yet? I haven’t gotten around to it, but I’ll definitely be making these treats for the holidays.

And don’t forget all the holiday appetizers—there are so many good options to choose from. Which one is your favorite?

Guidelines:

– Three questions are posted Friday morning.

– You have until midnight (EST) on Friday to qualify—leave your answer in the comments section.

– Comments will remain hidden until Saturday. I will receive them, but they won’t appear publicly right away. Please post only one comment per person.

– Everyone who answers correctly will be entered into a monthly drawing for a prize. If you participate in four trivia Fridays in a month, you’ll have four entries.

– The prize is different each month and will be announced on the 15th. It might be small or large, tangible or whimsical—but it will be revealed mid-month.

– The winner will be randomly selected and announced on the last day of the month. If the last day falls on a Friday, the winner will be chosen on Saturday.

Huge thanks to my brother for this fun idea.

I thought you’d enjoy some light, food-themed trivia.

Questions:

1. What is the literal meaning of the Italian word “linguine”?

2. How many flowers are in the design stamped on each side of an Oreo cookie?

3. What was the original name of Cheerios when it was first marketed 50 years ago?

Thanks for playing!
