	Q: What was the turkey suspected of? A: Fowl play!

	gsroest:	Nov 26th, 2009 at 08:21 GMT	2 points
	the bonus is greece (not if you cook it right) i think it implies that turkey should not be too greasy. so greece really means grease. mmmmm. grease makes homer simpson's craving sound

	I missed Turkey. Fail.

	Detektor:	Nov 26th, 2009 at 08:42 GMT	46 points
	Turkey more than makes up for its English name by having a city called Batman.

	Now I'm hungary

	cocky:	Nov 26th, 2009 at 08:45 GMT	16 points
	I can't believe Turkey wasn't higher up on the most guessed list. It certainly wouldn't be what I'd guess normally, but the name forced me to at least try it.

	gedion:	Nov 26th, 2009 at 09:24 GMT	1 point
	This remind me of that pig quiz.

	DrEfficient:	Nov 26th, 2009 at 09:28 GMT	20 points
	For half the time I was doing this as the highest turkish-born population quiz. Boy was I surprised when Turkey had such a low Turkish population!

	beforever:	Nov 26th, 2009 at 13:40 GMT	5 points
	Madagascar? Azerbaijan? :(

	imacelery:	Nov 26th, 2009 at 14:51 GMT	2 points
	Nice quiz. Missed 3 on my first go. Fed up of turkey so I'm having goose this year for a change.

	ChileNoseJam:	Nov 26th, 2009 at 15:02 GMT	3 points
	I tried the obvious ones then just started guessing random countries, and was a bit surprised that Iran, Belarus and Madagascar made the list. It does make you wonder who counted them all.

	zalagreensbury:	Nov 26th, 2009 at 15:32 GMT	8 points
	For some reason I didn't think turkeys dwelled any place other than North America and parts of Central and South American...this was edumacational.

	rockgolf:	Nov 26th, 2009 at 16:03 GMT	13 points
	I enjoyed this quiz so much I went back for a second helping. Then I loosened my belt and fell asleep on the couch.

	yummy quiz

	Tir McDohl:	Nov 26th, 2009 at 17:35 GMT	4 points
	Chile is the true turkey nation, it has more turkeys than humans. Do they export them?(cruelty, if alive) Or can they really eat them all on their own?
