This is a question Question of the Week suggestions

Each week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:

* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer

What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

How come you bake cookies but you cook bacon?

(, Fri 24 May 2024, 21:45, 1 reply, 10 months ago)
because those 4 words all have different etymological roots
also 'cook' is a generic term that encompasses baking frying and grilling etc, so it's entirely possible to cook cookies, hence the name.
