[Dixonary] Round 2944 AQUAFABA results!
It will come as no surprise to Mike Shefler that he is our new winner - the
first 3 votes went his way, and 5 more followed - for his 'tourmaline'. Efrem is in second place with a respectable 6. The word aquafaba was coined only a couple of years ago, when someone had the bright idea to whip up the slimy liquid found in a tin of beans and found that it resembled egg white. I've made aquafaba meringues, but they weren't great (whether that was the bean liquid or my baking, I have no idea). Take it away Mike! 1. Weeping. Guerri S, who voted 5 & 12. Score: 2 Votes from Mike S & Tim L. 2. A print resembling a watercolor, produced from a copper plate etched with nitric acid. Judy M, who voted 5 & 12. Score: 2 Votes from Keith H & Debbie E. 3. An early standard used for modeling water reflection effects in computerized animation, developed by Sun Microsystems in 1986. Ryan M, who voted *4* & 9. Score: 2 No votes. 4. The liquid that results when beans are cooked in water. Merriam-Webster D1 Johnny B, who was DQ. Score: 1 Vote from Ryan M. 5. Sap of the cedar tree, once thought to have curative properties. Efrem M, who voted 9 & 12. Score: 6 Vote from Chris C, Tim B, Mike S, Judy M, Guerri S & Tony A. 6.
