Well, "Don't put pizza in the composter" is a fairly reasonable request, really.

Hey that's from Halifax! And if it's city composting, any foodstuffs are game because it's picked up every second week. I think the objection is to it being donair pizza, which can manage to stink up a room for days with it's vile smell.

paperdol, I am glad you are here, because I finally got the money/time to get and read your book, and it was so good! It is not only witty and interestingly written enough to, IMO, appeal to anyone, not just the on-line Buffy fans, some of the notes you hit resonated with me enough to bring tears to my eyes.

Happy anniversary Susan, and happy non-connubial bliss to Teppy and the boy! And happy happies to anyone else that I missed.

There's city composting? Neat. Only kind I've ever seen is kitchen/backyard composting, where any sort of animal products (except eggshells) will stink up the whole house for days.

what the heck is donair pizza?!

I was watching some of the Dirty Jobs marathon yesterday, and at least one town (I think it might have been Tulsa) composts its roadkill and uses it for mulch.

City composting is way cool! I don't think we have that...

Also, I'm an unrepentant meatatarian, and I was always taught that the compost bin is veg-only. Hrrmph on the anti-vegan screed-writer with his (I'm assuming) dumbassed assumptions!

what the heck is donair pizza?!

Also this!?! Donair sounds like a combination of Donuts and a Corvair car.

Donair is like gyro: [link]

Which actually explains why, when I was on vacation with my family in Nova Scotia, and my dad asked what kind of meat was in the donair, the waitress looked blank and said, "Donair meat?"

I was thinking a debonair donkey....

From Wikipedia

A variation on the döner kebab known as a Donair was introduced in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada in the early 1970s. A restaurant called King of Donair claims to have been the first to serve this version in 1973.[1]

The meat in this version of the döner kebab (Halifax donair, as it is sometimes referred to) is sliced from a loaf cooked on a vertical spit, made from a combination of ground beef, flour or bread crumbs, and various spices, while the sauce is made from evaporated milk, sugar, vinegar, and garlic. The meat and sauce are served rolled in pita bread with diced tomato and onion. This version is generally so packed with ingredients, that the pita is almost there for ceremonial purposes; the pita of any true Haligonian donair will be so soaked in sauce that attempts to pick it up will be fruitless.

This version of the donair is very popular throughout the Maritime region of Canada, and is also available in some other areas of the country, with many fast food pizza restaurants also featuring donairs on the menu. Many of them also offer a donair pizza featuring all of the donair ingredients served on a pizza crust. Donair subs are also not uncommon.

Basically, it's a vile thing that only people who are drink off their asses eat.
