I fell out of my chair laughing, I just saw an ad that was a little...um, unusual.

I was at FoodTV pulling down the recipe (which I placed in our recipe forum) for Beer-B-Q bull Horns and on the right side of the page was an "ad" for Google, that pointed to ebay

"new and USED BBQ sauce...click here to see ebay..."

USED BBQ sauce????????????????

Please don't try to imagine that concept too close Eeker

That's a quirk with Google's and Ebay's crawler code (the program used to generate ads based on search engine strings).

I once searched on 'recipe "pork chops"' and got the same message, "New and Used Pork Chops on Ebay". It caught me off guard at first, as my mind drifted back to when I was a kid and I wouldn't eat my veggies. My mom would remind me of all the starving kids in Etheopia. To which the standard reply was, "You can send the 'used' pork chop to them.
