I think we should call it the (T)GKQ, rather than TTQ. Though it doesn't sound as good... :oops2:

It makes sense in context, but just seeing that screenshot on its own with "GOD" written on his chef's hat makes it look really ludicrous! :fou2:

I don't remember either.....was it deoxyribose or something like that?

Re: The Teensies' General Knowledge Quiz – Season 1

Actually I'll allow it. Deoxyribose is indeed the sugar to which the D refers, even if the full DNA molecule is named "deoxyribonucleic acid". (So technically the "se" should be replaced by a hyphen in the answer.)

I'm afraid not. (Remember it's four and five letters, not three and four!)

That's not it either! Actually, this is quite a hard one, so I'll give a little hint: "fruit".

Frit and fruit?

Nope. One of the words is usually used in a fruit-related context, but neither of the words is actually "fruit" itself.

All may reanswer.
