Did you know that saltwater taffy has no saltwater in it at all?


  What are some other things that have names consisting partially of elements that they do not contain?  Mock turtle soup is already taken.

    how about "pancakes"---although admittedly a stretch.

    or soy milk?

    cocktail sauce?

    Reminds me of taking the word "Westinghouse" from the refrigerator and seeing how many words you could make with the letters.  (Yep, I'm old.)

    Anytime a nut or bean gives up it's juice it is known as a "milk".

    And if you call the tail of a dog a "leg" does that mean it has 5 legs?
