Hu, who cooks fruit?

Sha, some type of rice? or beans?

sha, uh... not even remotely close

bradley's is a fish

darn u daniel! u already knew! lol jk whateva i got plenty more to come.

ok sha, uve officially got me stumped with ur last riddle

It's chicken, and a fish is totally like a mail sorter machine with a squeaky hinge that constantly needs oil!

uh... y say that chicken is common amongst only black ppl when everyone in america eats it

still a good riddle though. the hint... not so much

Because, fried chicken is the bases on what soul food is based on!

Face it: Everyone in America and Asia for that matter eats chicken.

You could have used a more African food like Cassava.

-nods-

I said fried chicken, and what's Cassava?

You said chicken in your answer, and then you said fried chicken!

Cassava is a popular vegetable-type food staple commonly eaten in Africa in countries like the Central African Republic and others.

Well I don't know about it, so it can't be too African!

lol i always get a kick outta reading this column.

ok heres one

What has roots as nobody sees,
Is taller than trees
Up, up it goes,
And yet never grows?

(note: this riddle was written b4 we found out that a mountain technically does grow [even if by a totally small and insignificant amount])

A glacier.

o.k. next riddle; this one's tough!
I'm a riddle in nine letters,
An elephant, a ponderous house,
A melon strolling on two tendrils
O red fruit, Ivory, fine timber!
The loaf's big with it's yeasty rising
Money's new minted in this fat purse.
I'm a means, a stage, a cow in calf.
I've eaten a bag of green apples
Boarded the train there's no getting off.

... O.o'

and no not a glacier

(Bradley) a house?

houses go up
the 'roots', or foundations, are underground
most houses are taller than the typical tree.
houses don't really grow after they have been built (unless you renovate)

(to Bradley) It is a glacier! Fine then, it's a skyscraper!

no, no, and no.

ok heres one
