Really??

Conversation at work.

Me:  Where do you suppose pimentos come from?

Co-worker: The red things in olives?

Me:  Yeah

Co-worker:  Don't they just grow in the olive?

Me:  No.

Co-worker:  Are you sure?

Me:  Yeah.

Co-worker:  Well, I don't know then.

Wow.  Thank God for Google.  Turns out it's a sweet pepper in case you're wondering.
