Okay, so while these might technically be the CORRECT answers, I still think I had some clever suggestions... Actually, I'm fairly certain that dolphins DO turn into killer whales if you feed them a flammable pistachio nut... (AND why wasn't buffalo wings the correct answer? I so don't get this game!)
