Yes it was a while back

So I followed something of a Wiki whirlpool over the holiday:

Who, or what, are (or were) the Cochise County Cowboys

Just in case you have no idea what I am talking about here is the excellent Spike Jonze "Sabotage" Video.

The only things i know about the cochise cowboys came from something i watched about Wyatt Earp. My memory is really sketchy on it but there was some sort of battle between them and what was left of Wyatt Earps gang. I think before that they were known for being cattle russlers somewhere round Tombstone. I could me mixing up all sorts of oddball trivia in my head there.

Both right, although Stuart has more detail. Cochise County Cowboys were the 'other' side at the OK Corral. I really figured someone would have that esoteric piece of knowledge.

Stu, I think that's yours to set unless you want to nominate Dave

Still snowed under so please forgive any delays in me answering.

Talking of snow. Useless fact 2/3rds of the worlds population have never seen snow. Weird but true. :)

My question is : which is the only food that contains all the elements necessary to sustain life ?

Guinness. I know it's Guinness as I saw it on a poster in a bar in Dublin.

The Guiness claim is just a marketing ploy. Its a bit like the advertising claims from years ago that smoking is good for you.

The answer im looking for is not a drink. There are some brands associated with the food but there are also many small / local suppliers of this particular food stuff.

I will give a clue later but im expecting zag or somebody to know it or work it out.

Marmite!

Probably wrong, but I hope it's at least gained a reaction from the haters around here!
