These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2018-03-05,
and should be interpreted accordingly.
On each question you may give up to two answers, but if you give
both a right answer and a wrong answer, there is a small penalty.
Please post all your answers to the newsgroup in a single followup,
based only on your own knowledge. (In your answer posting, quote
the questions and place your answer below each one.) I will reveal
the correct answers in about 3 days.
All questions were written by members of Bill Psychs and are
used here by permission, but have been reformatted and may have
been retyped and/or edited by me. For further information see
my 2017-09-25 companion posting on "Questions from the Canadian
Inquisition (QFTCI*)".
* Game 7, Round 2 - Sports - World Series Appearances
Opening Day is just around the corner. Who will get to go to the
World Series this year? Well, we can't ask you that, but in this
round we'll give you the most recent year when a team appeared in
the World Series, and some facts about that Series. In each case,
you name the team. Answers will not repeat but may be mentioned
in other questions.
Either city or team name is acceptable (like "Edmonton" or "Oilers")
if there is only one such team in Major League Baseball; otherwise
you must give the full name (like "Edmonton Oilers").
1. 1979. Beat the Baltimore Orioles in 7 games. Willie Stargell
was the series MVP.
2. 1983. Beat the Philadelphia Phillies in 5 games in what was
dubbed the I-95 Series for the highway connecting the two
nearby cities.
3. 1993. Beat the Philadelphia Phillies in 6 games. The series
ended on a home run.
4. 1999. Lost to the New York Yankees in 4 games. Coached by
Bobby Cox.
5. 2001. Beat the New York Yankees in 7 games. Luis Gonzalez
got the series-winning hit off Mariano Rivera.
6. 2009. Beat the Philadelphia Phillies in 6 games. Hideki Matsui
was the series MVP.
7. 2011. Lost to the St. Louis Cardinals in 7 games. In Game 6
the team was twice one strike away from winning the Series.
8. 2013. Beat the St. Louis Cardinals in 6 games. David Ortiz
was the series MVP.
9. 2014. Beat the Kansas City Royals in 7 games, the third of
three wins in consecutive even-numbered years.
10. 2016. Beat the Cleveland Indians in 7 games, ending a
championship drought.
* Game 7, Round 3 - Science - Fermented Foods
1. Fermenting soybeans with the fungus Rhizopus oligosporus binds
the soybeans into a cake form and creates this food that
originates from Indonesia. It is a common protein source for
vegetarians and vegans, and can be used as a meat substitute
in many dishes such as hamburgers.
2. This is a variety of fermented, lightly effervescent sweetened
black or green tea drinks. It is produced by fermenting tea
using a SCOBY -- "symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast".
3. This is a traditional Japanese seasoning produced by fermenting
soybeans with salt and the fungus Aspergillus oryzae, and
sometimes rice, barley, or other ingredients. The result is
a thick paste with a variety of uses. You will probably know
it as the base for a common Japanese soup.
4. This staple of Korean cuisine is traditional side dish made
from salted and fermented vegetables, most commonly napa cabbage
and Korean radishes, with a variety of seasonings.
5. This is a traditional Japanese food made from soybeans fermented
with Bacillus subtilis. It is known for its powerful smell,
strong flavor, and slimy texture. It is typically eaten on
rice as a breakfast food.
6. This is a type of pancake from the Indian subcontinent, made
from a fermented batter consisting of rice and black gram.
It is somewhat similar to a crepe in appearance. Traditionally,
it is filled with a potato mixture and served hot along with
sambar and chutney. However, it can have a wide variety of
fillings and uses.
7. This is finely cut cabbage that has been fermented by various
lactic acid bacteria. It is common across Central and Eastern
European cuisines. The English name is borrowed from German
where it means literally "sour herb" or "sour cabbage".
8. This is a hot sauce made exclusively from peppers of the same
name by the McIlhenny Company. The peppers are ground into a
mash and fermented in barrels for up to three years. The mash
is then strained, mixed with vinegar, and bottled.
9. This is a fermented liquid condiment made from a variety of
ingredients, including vinegar, molasses, anchovies, and
tamarind extract. It was originally created by the chemists
John Wheeley Lea and William Henry Perrins sometime in the 1830s.
10. This is a very common liquid condiment of Chinese origin.
It is made from a fermented paste of the main ingredient, roasted
grain, brine, and Aspergillus oryzae or Aspergillus sojae molds.
It has a wide variety of uses. You might dip your sushi into it.

(Don't know if that is the right answer, but kombucha has become one
of the hip things. I recently decided to give it a try. It tastes
awful, and I drank very little of the bottle I bought.)
