Daily (intermittent) Open-End Puzzle (DOEP): Fattening yogurt
This is a “Let’s figure out how this statement might be true” puzzle. I have an answer in mind (which you probably won’t like), but I’m more interested in the ones y’all come up with:
For the sort of run-of-the-mill yogurt — no fruit on the bottom — you buy in your average American supermarket, I believe it is true that the further you go down in the container, the more fattening it becomes.
Why might that be true? More important, in how many different ways can we take that putative fact to make it true?
